A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE ARTIST

1. What do you do when you’re not making art? (Day job etc...).

Art is my full time job, but of course I do other things in my spare time. When I'm not painting I most enjoy reading, jumping curbs on my sweet beach cruiser, and/or feng shuing my home.

2. Why do you make art?

I make art because it's the one place I feel I can fully express myself, and explore my individuality.

3. What inspires you?

As simple as it may seem, life is what inspires me. Experiencing an ever changing world always keeps my creative juices flowing.

4. What/who are your influences?

Fashion designers and interior designers greatly influence my work. It always amazes me how other mediums can tell a story or evoke an emotion, much like art does.

5. If you could meet anyone dead or alive who would it be?

If I could meet one person, dead or alive it would have to be Georgina Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire. That lady had one tough life and still always saw the light.
