How it began...

Hi folks :-) I started this blog in 2006, following a short trip to Hong Kong. I found some illustrated products of an artist I had never heard of. I wanted to capture the thrill and excitement of this unexpected discovery because all too often, that fresh euphoric feeling would just vanish into thin air!

I truly believe that we all need inspiration to keep our lives fresh and spirited, and hence the name 'In-Spirati.'

OK. May the *spirits* be with you!

Love & Light,

Jessica
