The Artist

A few Words About me

Don Young

My tagline is “People as art,” because I have always thought that the human body was a work of art that could be captured infinitely without becoming cliche; and I am not alone. Take a look at art history. The human form has been considered art since we were making pictures on stone walls.

I believe that every person should see themselves as art and take the opportunity to be a part of the artistic process. Artistic expression may not show up on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, but I believe that was an oversight on his part. I couldn’t live without artistic expression and if you agree, reach out and let’s create art together!

The Assistants

A few Words About me

Aiko

The matriarch of the assistants. Aiko was my first cat and she is nearly 20 years old. She likes to greet every person she sees. Head scratches are her favorite compensation. Unfortunately, she doesn’t enjoy being cuddled or picked up. She is too regal for that.

A few Words About me

Luther

He is the overseer. He doesn’t want to be your friend, even though he is friend shaped. He is too busy overseeing everything.

A few Words About me

Maze

She is the resident ninja. She moves from space to space unseen. If you see movement out of the corner of your eye but nothing is there when you look. Don’t worry, you aren’t going crazy. It was just maze keeping an eye on the perimeter. If you feel someone tapping you on the calf, that is also Maze. She just wants to assure you that she is around and keeping an eye out.

A few Words About me

Lucy

She provides editing support after everyone leaves. Hide and seek level – MASTER.

A few Words About me

Arya

Chief INEFFECIENCY officer. She likes to pretend to stay out of the way during shoots. But, as soon as it’s just us. Bam! She is stuck to me like a staticky sock. She’s a shoulder cat, so I often find myself having to work with only one hand so that the other one can support her. Otherwise she holds on with claws and that is my least favorite way to spend time together.

A few Words About me

Haru

Haru wants to be the model for all of my shoots. While he is a great model and very fun to work with, he has to learn that not every shoot is a Haru shoot. He’s getting better. Bribing him with attention and head scratches usually works.
