My Huggy Bear - Art & Time Project

by Wendie Busig-kohn

My Huggy Bear
Let's go eat some sushi
And talk about our day
Of failed auditions
And lost missions
We'll mangé our blues away!
We will laugh
At our insecurities
We will heal each other's wounds
You'll analyze me thoroughly
We'll sing some well known tunes
Playing in the background
As Goro's knife swings through the air
Creating yet another fine dish
To cure our worries and
Lighten the burden
Of another day we've shared

I miss those days and nights at "Brothers"
When true best friends we were
Always caring for one another
Always taking time to share
Our private thoughts and dreams
You were my real life HUGGY BEAR!
But now distance between us,
May sometimes put us apart
I still look for your approval
In matters of the heart
Remembering you with love and laughter
As these many years "role" by
My true best friend and sushi partner
My most favorite, favorite guy!

The inside scoop!

Back in 2011, The Artist In You challenged folks to post their Art and engaged Poets from around the world to 'mash up' their words of art to translate how each work made them feel! Synergy of thought and creative process engaged hundreds of thousands to view, like and participate. 'The Ultimate Collection' (working title) Art and Poetry book series mission was born! Have you seen the video yet?

For those who love poetry! For those who love art! For those who still love the feel of a big coffee table sized book, to visit, peruse, enjoy each day...we are so excited to present our first intended publication "Art and Time"! Renowned and Burgeoning artists have created an opportunity, a visual keepsake presentation, that erases all imaginary lines, engages, explores, and substantiates our mission statement: Inspiring Change With Every Brush Stroke!

How you can help

Through Kickstarter, our goal is to receive pledges for at least $5,000 by Sunday May 20th 2012. When this goal is reached, we will be able to begin producing the first in the series of "Art and Time" books - unique collaborations between artists and poets.

The proceeds from the sale of these innovative Coffee Table Books will be donated to support after school Art Programs for kids of all ages!

We hope you will share our commitment and enthusiasm by making a pledge to support this project via Kickstarter! Donate a dollar, or few if you can, and if you can pledge more support you can choose from a menu of great gifts and rewards - simply

Thanks so much for your support!
One Love! (pass it on...)
