History (as it happened):
O.A.D.
~ Personal "le challenges" were well under way since 1985.
~ Became an official "project" by the late 1990's, and became known as "shopping in Chris' Closet" (themed or not) - quoting several over the years that did not know each other, nor of it being stated before.
Chris S.' Projects
~ Officially started in the late 1990's (as mentioned above), and continued in 1999 with board game ideas in mind. It was not online, until later (see below).
+
~ Officially started "Wild Wicked Women - Creative Group" on Facebook, just prior to the "Wild Wicked Women" website on Dec.9, 2009. This was my first supportive online presence. I then changed the name to "Wild Wicked Women - Creative Group/ Collective" to include the idea/ possibility of groups within a collective.
For me: There are too many creative women "out there", to not want to promote/ support them!

+
~ Officially started "Chris S.' Projects" on Facebook in 2010. Despite this being my second supportive online presence, this is my "main brain" that all projects stem from and where I support both men and women. I then changed the name to host the same initials as my real name, and is now known as "Collaborative Endeavors Studio" (my "house/ headquarters").
+
~ Officially started "Wild Wicked World" (my game ideas) in 2010, and it grew to have two versions (an original/ earlier version, and a family friendly/ farther into time version) by 2011.

Artist Bio 1 - Chris S.

(~*~)
Hello,
My name is Chris E. Sweitzer (a.k.a. Chris S./ C.E.S.).
Welcome to my "creative" resume!
I figure it's easier to get to know me this way: through my thoughts and activities.
Please note that links are throughout; and more may be added, or they may be changed/ updated.
= 
ABOUT ME
1. I can work with others: 
~ I am community driven, and can be family friendly/ a "social butterfly".
~ I look to have 'fun with family & friends (fwff)', and inspire others to find their "hidden talents"/ shine.
~ I have shared, helped, and volunteered; with community activities, committees, events, and projects.
~ I enjoy sharing positive community information, inspiration/ motivation, and otherwise.More Information:
Inspiration [(in the Morning)]
[NEED to separate splash pages into: volunteering/ events, my crafts/ events otherwise, alt.mod, &???]
+
2. I can work alone:
~ I have 3 major projects/ "business initiatives" that are collaborative. I am attempting to keep them organized, and running; while continually growing/ contributing to them. Projects
~ I have unique styles within the darker goth/ punk genres of activities/ events, alternative modeling/ overall appearance designing (O.A.D.), and written workxz. 
More Information:
A Request from a muse, A BIG Q from a friend, and more...
+ 
3. I can grow:
Creativity is my "passion" in Life, for everything I do! Especially within design aspects of fashion, Halloween, photography, technology, variety (in general), and much more.
~ I am an innovational and motivated artist, within the Waterloo Region of Ontario.
~ I have been accused of being ahead of my time throughout my Life, as I have many ideas/ projects.
Review example: "You have an amazing eye for color and detail, and you are able to combine various elements and mediums in one project to create something that is completely original. Your creativity and originality are also prevalent in the way you dress from your own hair and make up styles, to the clothing you design and wear. You're also extremely innovative, always thinking outside the box, and inspiring others to expand their own perspectives. Your artwork pushes the envelope; it’s thought provoking, spirited, fearless, pure as in Raw and unlimited." 
~ Some like this version of my "short" bio better:

Creativity is my realm... 

and "beauty in all things" 

can be a "guiding light".
Inspirations surround me, 

like a warm blanket on a stormy winter night.
Materials & mediums are my assistants, 

to pass on creations 

throughout my existence.
Whether they come from 

my passion for fashion, arts & crafts, 

Halloween/ love for our dead,

or simply collaborating with others.
LOVE for the creative process itself, 

is my driver.
And I am a mere passenger with ideas...
along for the ride!!! (*@^@*)
