About Josh: after spending 8+ years in the forensic accounting world, concentrating on data mining and e-discovery, joshdecided to jump into the photobooth world in 2009.  seeing the need for a well designed, technologically advanced, modern photobooth in the marketplace, he and his wife set out to build just that.  while in the prototype phase of what would be known as QUESO, a chance meeting with his current partners in marfa, TX led to 5 days of desert driving discussing the future of what has become a trend at events all over the world, Smilebooth, basically the first ‘selfie’ machine.  josh, his wife, and soon to be three kids enjoy traveling the country and he likes to find time on a river with a fly rod as often as time allows, having even been found fly rod in hand along white oak bayou to get a quick fix.

Check out our upcoming CreativeMornings Houston #CMHou speaker, Sara Eliason’s website. Her interior design projects make for some eye candy. 

Mark your calendars for September 26th! We’ll be coming at you with another CreativeMornings Houston. Sara Eliason will be the featured speaker, and will tackle the global theme of “color.” Looking forward to coming out to the MFAH to catch Sara’s talk.

About Sara:

If we had to introduce Sara Eliason, and we do find ourselves having to a lot, we would say she is an interior designer….and then we’d back pedal out of that real fast.  She’s an intuitive, self taught, hippie, dippie, witchy, spirit  mama. She hails from Alaska….an Alaskan cowgirl by way of San Francisco and now Houston….I know it doesn’t really compute does it…color is noise to her…even her family (all four kids and her wife) wait for her to dress them to get the “color story” of the day just right. She sees the sacred and the beautiful in everything in the natural world in order to hear the spiritual world…yes, here’s the hippie dippie witchy wonderful part….she drinks water from a clay vessel and tastes the clay. She wants to build clayhouses for us to live within the skin of the earth. She wants the floor to be of the earth too. And the roof. She wants to plaster and paint with the clay to make the walls beautiful. She wants you to feel it. She wants to make paints from what grows in the clay and the dirt a.k.a. the soil. She wants to be able to build clayhouses from the clay from the place we live…like food…and wine…and salt…that would be terroir or local. This new, old indigenous language she will help translate to the world. She is a pioneer in the old ways. We might call her an Indigenous Designer, but then we’ll back pedal out of that fast…maybe Slow Designer….yeah no….there are so many words but none quite do the job.

We’re super excited to have Hearts of Animals performing at the upcoming CreativeMornings Houston, on August 22nd!
