MURAL UPDATE:
After 2 straight weeks of cutting and pasting the posters together, I am finally ready to begin adhering the posters to the wall! :) I have a scissor lift being delivered in the morning so I can start at the top (highest point is 32 ft.) and work my way down. The total length of the building is 112 ft. so this will be an enormous endeavor.
Please send some extra super power energy my way to help me get it done! :)
I will continue posting through the week on how things are moving along.. check for updates: www.jumpforjoyphotoproject.com and twitter: @jumpforjoyphoto

And now the fabulous featured jumper of the week:
COURTNEY SPAHAN! 
COURTNEY SPAHAN ...
From/lives: I am originally from the Coldwater Reserve in the beautiful Nicola Valley! I now live in Kitsilano as close to the beaches as I can afford.
Work: I work for a grocery store.
Q: What inspires you to jump for joy?
A: There are so many wonders and beautiful experiences that one can enjoy in this life and being able to express that in a singular action is simply put fun.
Q. Jumping photo experience?
A: I was very excited to be a part of a public piece of art that captures what I think should be our natural state... joyful. As for the shoot itself? leaping about the steps of the art gallery with so many curious faces was a lot of fun. Especially when I may have accidentally flashed some civilians.
Q: Inspiration in life?
A: Beautiful things. The sky. The curve of a persons face. The smell of cut grass. My family.
Q: Greatest passion?
A: Having fun and experiencing as much of this world as I possibly can.
Q: Driving force?
A: My family who are supportive and loving for all the choices I make.
Q: Philosophy?
A: People have the right to live in a way that makes them happy.
Q: Anything in the world?
A: Travel everywhere, read many great books, see many great works of art and be kind to people. I try everyday.
Q. Working on?
A: I enjoy performing burlesque, so there is always a routine in my mind that would like too get up on stage and shake it. I really try and see a show once a month and there are so many creative performers that I love. So I try and support the burlesque community because they were so open and supportive.
Q: Mini bio, interesting facts about you or something special you want to share.
A: I play hockey. Love to swim. Took a hat class the other week and have a penchant for sparkly things.
Photos of Courtney were taken in Vancouver, BC Canada.
