Elizabeth Currid: Creative Thinking


(Elizabeth Currid, Portrait by Tiner).

From lecturing in the classrooms of USC to writing manuscripts in New York City, Elizabeth Currid is creatively inspiring others. Currid shares with the world her unique talent to objectively critique the creative economy, consisting of artists, fashion designers and musicians. Currid's paintbrush are the words she uses to describe these creative individuals and the colorful impact they leave on the world.

Inspired by Currid's first published book, The Warhol Economy, I enjoyed creating this stylized portrait of her in a "Warhol" manner, consisting of multiple images. As a tribute to Andy, I included his portrait in the bottom right corner.

As one of my friends and fellow creative, I wish Currid the best with her endeavors, especially as she is preparing her second book.

Don't be afraid, if you are not "qualified."

You'll never know when you're big break will happen.  The secret is to be ready at all times. Last weekend, Matt Williams, a Texas Tech sophomore, won a month of free rent by kicking a 30-yard field goal during a contest at his school's football game. Although Texas Tech is currently ranked #8 in the country, the team has missed six extra point attempts and half of its field goal attempts. Following the contest, Mike Leach, Texas Tech's football coach, approached Williams and asked him to be the team's extra point kicker. Tomorrow, Williams receives his big break and will kick extra points against #19 Kansas. If you have a talent, don't be afraid to share it.  You'll never know who is watching and where it will take you.
