ART for Autism awareness.
This symbolically represents the puzzling spectrum of Autism where things don't always quite fit the same as in the world for you and I.
This started off as a picture of "Joe" the family dog and I wanted to show my son what you can do in Photoshop in the hope it might spark some creative genius! :))
My 12 year old son has high functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD). I have seen his struggles and also seen huge successes... In fact just recently he broke THREE long standing high school records in athletics, beating his opponents in running by a country mile!!!
Believe me, I stood proudly with a tear in my eye.
Understanding, support and awareness is all that is required to ensure success in these amazing children.
I never much cared for these brown bermudas. Until today. I now see their inherent value to me, as my son still thinks I am a napkin/towel. Creeky grimy muddy hands? No problem! No problem at all with my hideous brown extra absorbent bermudas.
I think I'll also pick up a few brown tee shirts, too. He had a bloody nose on the walk today.

I aksed my friend, Dan, to photograph Rob and me. I always wished I had someone around to catch some of this stuff. These make me infinitely happy. Thanks, D.
Most of us would just take in beauty with our eyes but my daughter, having autism, explores things on a much deeper level. She is amazing and inspirational.
Senator Bye and Jordan Oberstein, age 10, of West Hartford, at the opening of a display in the Legislative Office Building in Hartford of art by autistic students. Behind them is Jordan's collage, which he says represents two hands planting the seeds of care which all autistic children deserve. (April 25, 2011)

NJ Transit's Autism Acceptance unit brings a Raritan Valley Line train into Bound Brook station. In the background, a few double stack cars of NS 23G can be seen between the trees. If 23G had only arrived a few seconds earlier...

Today it is World Autism acceptance and awareness day. Yes I have it, also ADHD. My biggest special interest are lampposts. So I combined two of my hobbies, lampposts and Lego.
visit Artists and Autism on Facebook.. it's a wonderful place to see the artwork of folks on the Autism Spectrum.. Take some time to educate yourself about Asperger's Syndrome and Autism.. You'll be glad you put forth the effort.. Knowledge is power..
Art for Autism.
Artism is an independent organisation aiming to create a book bursting with artists/graphic designers work which will be sold to raise money for the National Autistic Society charity through the use of Art.
I did this piece to collaborate with this great project. You remember the sketch? well this is the result. The only slight restrictions are black and white followed by one of the chosen colours So I choose a purple.

Arte por el Autismo.
Artism es una organisacion que recauda fondos para National Autistic Society. Como? selecciona artistas de todo el mundo para que donen sus piezas y asi venderlas con el fin de ayudar a chicos con esta enfermedad.
Tuvieron la gran idea de hacer un libro y me pidieron que participe. Este es el resultado, ya les habia mostrado el boceto, se acuerdan? bueno como la consigna era que sea blanco y negro con la inclusion de un solo color, yo elegi una especie de purpura. Podria ser un tributo a Purple Rain the Prince no? jaja.Chau, me fui.

My incredible little boy was diagnosed with Autism at the beginning of this year. The nature of the condition means that social interaction can be challenging at times.
Lately, thanks to a new fascination with superheroes (and dressing up as one), the layers have started to peel back and he's begun to reveal more and more of his personality to us - something we feared might never happen.
I love this picture as it perfectly captures so much of his personality in a single shot; intelligence, determination, pride, power, confidence - not all superheroes wear a cape, but this one does <3
For Throwback Thursday. This picture of my daughter and son was taken at the annual Autism Awareness walk in April, 2011. The event was held at the Jones Stadium at Texas Tech University.

... I was thinking that April is the National Autism Awareness Month And cause i work with kids with autism and special needs generally and I love their world the least I can do is to create something for all of them and challenge everyone to create art so people will know and share their personal experiences and thoughts... that autism is not a disease for example ... Let's see this year what people will post for those wonderful people. A photo text to keep it to their feed for one hour? Or a post that they'll be proud of and think how important is to support those people not for an hour but always ... Be creative and don't forget .art is to become human again !
when i arrived to photograph a story about parents dealing with autism i found a young boy hiding under the diningroom table. he remained there the entire time-every so often pushing himself feet first into the light from the glass door which opened onto the backyard...this was the only time i saw his face.
