Thinking outside the box
CanvasRebel Magazine: Having new or innovative ideas is essential to pushing the world forward and so we asked the community to share stories of the most innovative things they’ve done in their career. Our hope is to inspire folks who think only scientists or tech-wizards can innovate – innovation is possible for everyone, regardless of job title or function, industry or geography.

This is an inspirational story about building a community and a life centered on passion and art. I particularly admire the environment Shawn has created in Atlanta—providing a space not only for art to be created and viewed but also for community gatherings. His unique perspective, shaped by years of unwavering commitment to showcasing artists he truly believes in, speaks to the values he holds as an artist: bringing people together and enriching the world through art. This vision closely aligns with the type of community I aspire to build within the entertainment industry—a space that not only showcases the work of artists but also fosters collaboration and innovation. I hope to create a shop where artists' work is displayed and appreciated while also enhancing the skill set within a scene shop. This, in turn, could introduce new and innovative ways to continue advancing and evolving the industry. For example fine woodworking has become more of an art in our world but if we cultivate these individuals and provide them the space there would be room to provide a more sustainable practice in the life of scenery by allowing them to build and create furniture from shows that are going to the dump.
