Where do my inspirations for my work come from?
My inspirations come from many places; they come from my writing, my readings, the actual work itself as I work on it and it speaks to me, and from all things natural. The biggest inspirational place for me is in the actual work itself when it gives me an idea as I'm working with the paint. I don’t look for inspiration in trendy ideologies, colors and for ams like fashion. Rather, I support the ideas that are actually found in the work as I'm painting. Of course, these ideas may be part of my history, reading and writing. That would be only natural as those things are me, and the work is being created by me. When I am creating it is a very natural space. It is one of my "yes yes yes" spaces. When I create, it is a very intuitive creative process. I listen to myself talking to the paper and the colors.
My wish is that many would look for this very natural space within themselves and actually listen to it.
