Accomplished artist and spiritual practitioner Stephen Futral takes us on a mind-expanding trip to exotic locales across the globe, meeting remarkable people and having extraordinary experiences! A child of post-World War II America, these earthly and spiritual adventures are a fascinating read of life in its times-largely because of the writer's own attitude toward them. Futral rides the waves of coincidence where they take him, with zest and stamina and few regrets. The adventures read like those of a charmed hero in a fairy tale, mistake-prone and lucky, unapologetic and resilient.

Author Information

Stephen Futral is an avid artist, writer, and poet. Stephen's father was an enthusiastic businessman who carried the family on trips around various sites and attractions, starting in their hometown of Manhattan and then later throughout the world. His life abroad at an early age shaped much of his thinking, and opened him to new ideas which he happily explored through his art. At 17, Stephen spent a year in Israel, studying at The Betzalel School of Art and Design in Jerusalem and spending time with Yona Mach, a famous Israeli artist who was his mentor. At the end of the year, he spent a month in Ein Hod, an art colony outside of Haifa overlooking the Mediterranean, before developing a portfolio and gaining acceptance at Parsons, Pratt and the School for Visual Arts in NYC. Five years later, Stephen flew from NYC to Rome and then went by land to India. Stephen was able to be involved in many artistic projects and endeavors while pursuing the spiritual path, starting a family, and continuing to move around. He currently resides in Colorado with his family.
