Remember the phrase, curiosity killed the cat? Kinda makes you think it’s bad to ask questions, doesn’t it? Hooey on that! Being curious about the world is how we learn and evolve. Myself, I’m a curious and adventurous person who likes to experiment and create with paint, paper, scissors and glue. Okay, to be frank…I use whatever I think would work in a piece.
Being in a studio with all these things is like what I imagine nirvana would be – pure joy at all the possibilities. The limitless outcomes, the happy accidents, and the utter failures – I embrace and learn from them all.
When people look at my art, nothing pleases me more than when they ask me how I did that. I feel a kinship with them because they are as curious as I about how things are made. I want every piece of art I create to inspire others to question how things work in the world.
Question everything!
