(Well) Packed
September 27, 2008

To be well-packed, take wherever you go:
Self-esteem, sense of humor, honesty, gratitude, imagination, curiousity,
empathy, keen awareness, forethought, resourcefulness and objectivity.
(Because no matter where you go, there you are!)
I first began seeking inspiration by sifting through Flicker searches for 'packed' and then 'suitcase'. I considering drawing a person with a suitcase, ready to go somewhere. But when I pulled out the drawing paper, something else popped, and I went with it. No matter where we go or how far, we always prepare mentally. So I thought of useful 'portable' characteristics.

Afterwards, I made it into a poster:


Because no matter where you go,
there you are -
Be well prepared,
Take where ever you go...

It is available in a print, 11x14 is the recommended size.
