My painting carries with it the message of pain.
Tragedy is the most ridiculous thing.
Mankind owns its destiny, and its destiny is the earth. We are destroying it until we have no destiny.
I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.
It's not possible to present an accurate picture of our culture without all the voices of the people in the culture. So at the emerging level, you can't have a good survey art show without women and artists of color.
I leave you my portrait so that you will have my presence all the days and nights that I am away from you.
