My sister is an artist and an interior designer. She went to high school for art. I went to high school for music.

I like the brooding man - a brooding man with a sense of humor.

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

My dream is to walk around the world. A smallish backpack, all essentials neatly in place. A camera. A notebook. A traveling paint set. A hat. Good shoes. A nice pleated (green?) skirt for the occasional seaside hotel afternoon dance.

I said, 'Well, how much space do I have?' And they said, 'Well, you know, it's the Internet.'

It's almost impossible to reconcile the realities of how one feels during the day, hour by hour. But I approach things not cynically.

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.
