For me, cooking is an extension of love.

I knew I wanted to be an artist at age 5 or 6. I always drew. At 8, I was permitted to study.

My idea being that for the sublime and the beautiful and the interesting, you do not have to look far away. You have to know how to see.

I have a feeling that in art the need to understand and the need to communicate are one.

For me, cooking is an extension of love.
