What protects you in this world from sadness and from the loss of an ability to do something? ... Work and love.

Go out and walk. That is the glory of life.

Every Monday morning is new hope.

I live in a small world of gouache and brush and pen and ink. I'd like to explore the world of multiples - etching and prints.

You'd have to be completely crazy not to be influenced by and take from other artists. It's completely impossible not to.

I tell you these stories because these things happen to everyone. It's not about being starched or polished or cute or polite. It's about having ears that stick out, about breaking yet another glass. It's about seeing something for the first time and making a million mistakes and not ever getting completely discouraged.

I have many questions, but no patience to think them through.
