I recently minted my second NFT via OpenSea: an image of Wonderland Amusement Park -- an unfinished amusement park project in Chenzhuang Village, Nankou Town, Changping District, China, about 32 kilometers outside Beijing, China.

The incomplete and abandoned structures were demolished in May 2013, leaving no hope for the abandoned park ever to be finished, and I photographed Wonderland Amusement Park in 2012.

The site where Wonderland Amusement Park was abandoned is now home to the Badaling Outlet shopping mall, which opened to the public on June 26, 2015.

I was one of the last photographers in the world to document Wonderland Amusement Park, and the NFT is available via the link in my bio. #nft #nftart #abandoned #architecture #china

I am grateful, honored, and fortunate to be a mentor for Canon FUTURES!

The program is designed to support young artists and entrepreneurs (including photographers, filmmakers, and others) who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents between 18 and 24 years old and passionate about creative storytelling and content creation.

Through Canon FUTURES, I will be teaching youth all of the important skills, habits, mindsets, and paradigms that I wish I learned when I was in high school and university; I will be addressing the many mistakes that I have made throughout my career and where I lacked in foresight and wisdom, and I will be discussing topics such as cultivating mental health, emotional intelligence, mindfulness, introspection, transcending limiting beliefs, the psychology of money, the importance of clearly-defined values and boundaries, creating a unique value proposition, sales, and far more.

Applications are now open until Monday, August 16th, 2021; participants will be announced on Tuesday, September 2nd, 2021, and the incubator program will be running from September 2021 to July 2022.

This is an incredible opportunity for young artists and entrepreneurs via Canon Canada and the Canon Creator Lab that will prepare future creative leaders to navigate a rapidly evolving world, and more information is available via the link in my bio! #canonfutures #shotoncanon #education #mentor #creators

Maesha Elora of Artscape interviewed me earlier this year, so an article on my career, mental health advocacy, self-actualization, and the importance of mindfulness within the contexts of the arts and entrepreneurship has been published by my awesome client Artscape (through Artscape Daniels Launchpad).

I am grateful for the opportunity to share part of my story, and the article is available via the link in my bio. #art #entrepreneurship #photography #mentalhealth #mindfulness

"You must be shapeless, formless, like water.

When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup.

When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle.

When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.

Water can drip and it can crash.

Become like water my friend." -Bruce Lee #china #beijing #shotoncanon #architecture #forbiddencity
