five O
Welcome 2008
Globally we all move in a 1 year vibration: unity, beginning (of 9 year cycle) , focused concentration, goal-striving, action, independence, originality, courage, invention, self-reliance, ambition, pioneering , will, the conscious mind, and positive YANG energy will abound.
My personal year in 2008 is the 4 vibration moving into a 5 as I turn 50 this spring.
After many months laying foundations for the changes I have sought: a years intense study at British Columbia Institute of Technology, and a new home (and I am so loving it...up Grouse Mountain!), I welcome this 5 vibration.
5 is; adventure, change, freedom, exploration, variety, sensuality, unattached, curious, experienced, easily assimilates vast amounts of information, multi-dimensional, knowledge seeker, knowledge teacher, traveler, imagination, child-like, playful.
And 50 is the 'celebration' year.
And my new address is 5500...WOW...
55 is: Way shower, leader to the light, whole-brain thinking, quantum spirituality, universal mediator, mental telepathy, clairvoyance, ultimate freedom, ultimate oneness, integral consciousness....too bright!!!... ha!!
BRING IT ON!
A lot to look forward to.
For the next couple of months I am in semi-hibernation. Am taking a little time out to breath, to nourish myself, and consider the healthy creations I will work to share this year, and in coming years.
Wishing everyone the best of health and LOVE.
Let the 2008 games begin!!!

My background is varied. Much of the journey has been a challenging adventure, but through the darkest challenges and greatest pressures, to the lighter of times I have always responded to nature, to brilliance, to the elegance of skill, to naked truth, to tenacity with unflinching commitment yet utterly vulnerable... all of this is beauty, to me.
Oct. 2006, after many years singly parenting my teenage daughter and running a modest business from home, I decided suddenly to go to BCIT (British Columbia Institute of Technology) to study new media design and web development.
Anything "digital/computer related" is a completely new field for me...but typically this is how I rise from the ashes of stories that don't live for me any longer...I simply create a new one.

MALTESE_Profile
With a voracious eye for beauty, the unique, for truth, for intelligent design and her insatiable need to articulate, Tammy Maltese, single-parent of a blossoming 14 year old in-house goddess, proprietor of www.slipcoversvancouver.com and designer aka malteseDESIGN, is currently expanding her avenues of expression to include the new media/ digital medium.
Recognizing the phenomenal strides and elegant advances in ‘all things digital‘, and the webs' world wide platform, she is throwing herself into this new medium studying (over the course of these next few years) a wide gamut of software programs ranging from Acrobat, Photoshop and Illustrator to Flash, After Effects, and Motion to DVD Authoring, Dreamweaver and coding languages: HTML, CSS, PHP, and JavaScript, to digital video, sound and photography.
Winner of numerous merits and awards in the arts for drawing, painting, design, drama direction, creative writing, poetry and photography throughout her school years, she upon completion embarked on solo adventures to the Western and South-Western United States, the Gulf Islands, the Interior of British Columbia, and throughout the breadth and depth of Mexico into Guatemala.
She has managed a Fine Artists’ Materials Supply Store, done Freelance Photography (preDigital), Window Dressed for several Victoria, B.C. retail clothiers, Faux Painting and a little Interior Design. She was accepted into Emily Carr School of Art & Design, studying there for a short time then briefly formed an all-girls original music band but, still restless, she traveled further. She has goat herded in the Sonoran Desert, gill-net fished on the gulf side of Baja California, picked citrus in Yuma, Arizona, and planted tress near Wells, B.C.. She studied Creative Writing at U of Portland, Oregon, Yoga and Dance in Vancouver, and Minimum Impact Camping and Outdoor Skills with the National Outdoor Leadership School in Lander, Wyoming, in Utah,and in Baja California Sur where she was also that branch schools’ Managing Food Co-ordinator for one season.
Multi-faceted, self-motivated, still restless and passionate, Tammy is setting out to freelance her growing design and photography skills (www.maltesedesign.com). And travel; taking her daughter overseas to Italy, Angkor, Thailand, Australia, and camping across the western Americas.
Ms. Maltese finds great pleasure, moments of transcendence, and deep nourishment in nature, the little things, her own fertile imagination, and in others‘ profound journeys and creations.
She hopes to adequately master Italian before her daughters 16th birthday celebratory trip to Italy_summer 2009, how to STOP and go with a lot more grace on inline skates, and do full standing-to-standing forward flips on her trampoline.
