The Blank Canvas Project

Posted on the 19 July 2012 by Brittany_tyd @Brittany_TYD
Aloha y'all! I'm Jessica and I blog over at Jessica Who?. The title of my blog refers to the constant "Jessica who?" question that is Jessica's face. (You can read more about that here.) The Blank Canvas Project I'm a Texas girl who lives in Hawaii with my sweet husband and our baby Duke (he's a 1 year old puggle). My blog is kind of all over the place, just like my life. I'll post about anything from recipes (even though I'm horrible in the kitchen) to fashion (I like to pretend I know what I'm talking about). Anyway, enough about me! I'm here to talk to you about a project that I'm really excited about. It's called the Blank Canvas Tour.
The Blank Canvas Project David and Christina Diller (known in the blogging world as Tico and Tina) are touring the country on a mission to spread encouragement and inspiration. The tour includes the Dillers, their two children, their intern Krista, an artist named Randall, and Julie, their virtual team member.  They are making a cross-country photography adventure.  The tour will double as an opportunity to gather stories about journeys that other people are taking and tell those stories to encourage people who want to dare to dream. I'm lucky enough to be a part of the team as their Head of Public Relations!
For the past 6 months, the Dillers have carried a blank canvas with them, capturing fun images which are then turned into cards that people can customize with their own message. The hobby grew into something bigger than them. They recognize the blank canvas as a symbol of endless possibilities, of creativity waiting to be unleashed, of taking risks, and living with a mindset of adventure.
This project combines the blank canvas photo shoots with on-the-street video interviews, collecting candid takes on why or why not people are living a life of adventure and what that means to them.


What does this have to do with you? I'm glad you asked!  We would love for you to get involved by: 1. Spreading the word via word of mouth, blogging, social media, buttons, etc.. 2. Giving towards the project (which will get you some cool rewards) 3. Sponsoring the tour with your shop, blog, or business 4. Letting us tell your story 5. Nominating yourself or someone else to be interviewed as part of the tour (like I did here and here) The Blank Canvas Project For more info and to stay up-to-date with the tour, visit: blankcanvascards.com/the-tour/  Thanks for having me!
