FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hearts & Wings” The Art of Creation by Mark Kulaga

(Lakewood Ranch, Florida) June 13, 2013 –

About “Of Hearts & Wings” The Art of Creation

The artist Mark Kulaga (koogz) is proud to announce a project that has been an inspiration and has once again rekindled his love of art. “Of Hearts & Wings” The Art of Creation is a book based on an art form he discovered while taking care of his father over a two-year period.  In his spare time, while waiting for him at some of his appointments at the VA Hospital, he sometimes took walks and through found and discarded objects, began creating art in order to help him cope better with the potential loss of his father.

The art took on the form of Hearts and Wings, and then he was inspired once again to create a book based on this art form. The taking of sometimes very small insignificant materials, branches, metal, etc. and transforming them into something else, while still retaining their basic essence and nature.

This project is currently being hosted on a crowd funding site, Jump Start City,
where visitors can decide whether my project is worthy of continuing, and being funded. His goals are to fund a studio, produce and fabricate his art, publish his book, and eventually host workshops on the art of creativity and the profound positive impact of the very act of being inspired can affect one’s life.
