Everything has a muscle, be it literal or metaphorical, that atrophies after a prolonged lack of usage. With the passing of every day, it becomes more and more difficult to stop inertia in its tracks before it feels like I’ve hit that point of no return. So I had a chat the other day with a friend of mind who is also a coach. She listened quietly and intently and then politely backhanded me with the truth. Marisa, what it sounds like is you keep letting yourself off the hook. Why do you keep doing this? You know exactly what you need to do… It’s easier to take the path of least resistance. But some bright mind said that path leads to a life of least existence. If I have the choice, why would I ever choose the former? Why would anyone? Yet so many resign themselves to the small confines of their comfort zone, never stepping outside into the great beyond. Content in complacency. Who am I to judge? But I know there is something better out there. Something more. The place where dreams cross over into the realm of reality and knock on the door, rewarding you for all the hard work and commitment despite all roadblocks, mental or otherwise, that impede the path. It’s overcoming the challenges that makes the reward worth it. It’s the blood, sweat and tears left up the trail of the mountain that renders the view at the summit so gratifying. I know this to be true. I’ve done it before. As I recall, the hardest part of all of this glorious madness was getting started. The second hardest part, I imagine, is starting again… But Rome wasn’t built in a day. So I will be patient. And diligent. And resolute. One brick at a time. *** It’s safe to say I am my own worst enemy, the greatest limiting factor in my head. But it’s not impossible. Once that thought is firmly rooted in my head…then anything is possible.

Marisa S White is best known for seamlessly stitching multiple photographs together, weaving her own personal narrative through surrealistic and fantastical imagery. Having grown up in Houston, Texas with The Menil Collection and the MFAH in her backyard, Marisa was heavily influenced by the Surrealists. She incorporates these dream-like scenes to express and idea or an emotion perhaps not so easily conveyed through traditional landscapes and realistic settings. However, her images speak to concepts not so foreign or mysterious, but to touch upon our own questions of life, love, fear and the unknown. Initially a mixed media collage artist, she received her BFA at the University of North Texas. Through her studies she fell in love with the camera and further secured the use of photography in her work after a summer in Missoula, Montana at the Rocky Mountain School of Photography. Marisa now resides in Colorado with her husband (aka Capt. Awesome) and their four-legged children named Blue and Stormie.
