Lynda Wylde is an artist from Alberta who has had a lifelong passion for creating. She discovered her interest in art as a child through making sculptures out of found materials in nature. Wylde later took up painting in oils and photography, and had her first career in commercial printing. After starting a family, she pursued a home-based business in printmaking but had to stop creating to care for her son who had special needs. Now in her late 40s, Wylde has completed a design program and started another home business painting abstract works, allowing her to support her artistic passion while also directing an advocacy organization for her son.

[Framing the Artist] | Painted Horses: An Artist's Muse Awakens with Dinkar J...Artflute
Determined, disciplined and incredibly talented, Dinkar Jadhav is an artist whose life reads like a fairytale. Growing up in a tiny village, completely cut off from the comforts of city life, he grew up only knowing that his biggest love in life was art. That love, along with an indomitable will, led Dinkar to an art education in Pune through which he supported himself and his siblings. And what followed when his yearning to follow the muse of his own creativity eventually came true is the stuff that dreams are made of!
In our latest Framing the Artist series, Artflute's Sridevi Padmanabhan talks to Dinkar Jadhav about his journey with art.

I've uploaded my own Japanese translation of Jos's speech at Stanford University at http://www.slideshare.net/haradats/youve-got-to-find-what-you-love-jobs-says.
If you treasure the original speech like I do, why don't you make and share your version in your language?
This kit is a LaTeX template including the speech text. All you need is replace "*Your*" with translations and compile.
Enjoy.
Hint:
To adjust the horizontal positions of paragraphs, \baselineskip is handy.
Note:
The original text which has been published at the Stanford University is slightly different from the spoken words. My guess is that Stanford text is based on Job's memo received from Jobs.

1. Lynda Wylde: Artist Biography
I am originally from Alberta. I was born in 1965. My family moved out to BC when I was 9 years old.
I have been living in the White Rock area since 2002.
Who is Lynda Wylde? For you to get the picture, let's start with when I was a kid. I was always hungry to create.
Creating just about anything meant more to me than making friends. I was a happy latch-key kid and a bit of a
loner. I was a tomboy by day and a young socialite by night. My mother worked downtown Calgary and my sisters
and I would often meet her for dinner at glamorous 1970's dinner clubs. I loved the live bands!
On the other hand, I also loved the outdoors. As a child, I had a lot of freedom to go exploring. On one of my
expeditions, I found a stream that was lined with clay. I dug up the clay and brought it home. I made my
creations and let them bake in the sun. I later painted them. Another time, I made candles by melting wax and
pouring it into a hole that I had dug in the back yard. The wax I did not melt, I used to carve animal figures with
a potato peeler. When my mom bought a truckload full of lumber scraps to use as firewood, I saw it as a beautiful
pile of “stuff” to create with! Oh, I created many miniature rooms with that wood. I made furniture, appliances,
stairs, etc.. My little rooms had carpets, drapes, art, and electricity.
I started painting in oils when I was 12 yrs old. My aunt was a painter and she gave me my first set of paints. I bought my first camera
when I was 17. I love black and white photography! In high school, I was developing my own photos. When I was 17 years old, I started my
first career in the commercial printing industry. I ran a press, did platemaking and film stripping, as well as, process camera work.
Afterwards, I went into graphic art and learned to be a typesetter.
When I was 30, I started my second career with a home-based business as a painter and printmaker. My paintings were now done in acrylic
and I had gathered three lead-type proof presses from here and there. I learned to set lead-type and carve linoleum. I made linocuts. Then
I converted my proof presses to print my linocuts onto journal covers for the gift market. I also did screen printing with Micheal de Courcy.
My second and third career overlapped for ten years. When I was 33, our son was born. Two years later, after a 14 year marriage, I started
a career as a single parent of a special needs child. My third career took me in an entirely different direction. I became chief cook and bottle
washer, a physiotherapist, speech pathologist, occupational therapist, behavioural therapist, and advocate for my son. By the time I was 40,
my third career took all my time and energy. I shut down my business. I had to give up creating. I reached burnout at age 46. Extreme life
decisions and changes had to be made.
Now, I am nearly 49 years old. I have developed a deep understanding of life and an easy going way of navigating it. My son no longer lives
with me. I have just finished a two year design program at Langara College. I happily juggle two careers. I am the director of Blakeheart
Society which is a society recently organized to advocate for my son. I have started another home based business. I paint custom abstract
paintings for interior designers, home stagers, and others who want to support my painting addiction. I never would have thought about the
abstract style of painting had it not been for the inspiration from one of my teachers at Langara. I love that one painting can convey a
different feeling or emotional experience for each viewer.
