I like my drawings to be direct. I don't generally work on them for too long, but that doesn't mean that they are not works in their own right.

I like to look at everything and appreciate seeing the different things that have meaning to people.

Even before I had children I wanted the intensity of my life to get greater. I wanted to feel things more strongly. I wanted my intellectual parameters to expand. But it comes back to your own desire to be engaged and to live up to your parameters.

I'm really not a person who consumes a lot. I don't have a sports car.

As an artist, I've always wanted to participate in the dialogue of art with other artists.

Art helped give me confidence.

Whenever you finish an artwork and the viewer comes and views it, at that moment you've given up control.
