There’s always a danger of becoming formulaic when your art is thematic in style. Fortunately I have only scratched the surface and I am immensely excited to see where it goes.
Along the way I have the protection of a studio muse that happens to be a fellow artist and wife , Inci (Angie). Her favorite quote from Anna Massey Lea Merritt is: “The chief obstacle to a woman’s success is that she can never have a wife. Just reflect what a wife does for an artist.”
I know what this wife has done for this artist.
