Ambition is the path to success

“Ambition is the path to success. Persistence is the vehicle you arrive in.”
🚲
I won’t lie. Things are challenging right now on several fronts. Keeping my eyes on the horizon and my feet moving forward while taking a step back to assess the direction of the wind and my navigation of it. Reevaluating my partnerships and my roles, shaking things up a little.
🛣️
I welcome the challenge. I will come out stronger and more focused!

Planning Power

Between the twin peaks of strategic method and careful planning flows a winding path of improvisation.

Let’s lace our boots and blaze the way forward.
With eyes on the horizon and hearts beating in our chest.

Virtual Reality Art Jam

There’s something special going on tomorrow night. I’ll be doing a live virtual reality art jam at Better Than Unicorns in collaboration with another local artist / student Mikhaila Hines. We’ll be playing with Tilt Brush creating a live 3 dimensional virtual reality painting. This will be a new experience for me and I’m really excited to explore this new medium. It’s free to attend in person, and will also be streaming free online. https://www.betterthanunicorns.com

WHEN: Tomorrow Wed May 16th 5:30 – 6:30 PM
WHERE: Physical – Better Than Unicorns VR Arcade located in the RAMP Studios at 821 Riverside Dr #172, Asheville, NC 28801
Or Online
WHAT – Experimental art collaboration in virtual reality with Tilt Brush
WHY – Because we live in the future and we can! All work and no play makes John a dull boy.
WHO – Yours truly John Hornsby and Mikhaila Hines, thanks to Brett McCall for inviting and hosting us.
