I can’t say it enough what an inspiration your are to me. Since I was very young I had the pressure that everything that I sketched or painted had to be good. That caused me to stop for many years, however I am now trying to be more relaxed and just enjoy the process. Thank you.😊

I paint very tightly, art school tried to make me loosen up but after school I realised I was an adult and could paint how I liked and I'm quiet successful with my style BUT I have a friend who has a gallery and every year she holds a competition and it always has a theme, this is my playtime, I break all my own rules with colour, texture and size. She laughs everytime I bring in my pieces because they keep getting bigger and bolder, she's now put a size limit to stop me growing. I really love the theme restriction which allows me to play but with a direction or jumping off point. This year was just "GREEN" What was I supposed to do with that, hardest and most fun ever. Glad I'm not the only one that plays.🥰

The fact that you're able to take these "ordinary" scenes and turn them into these mini wonderlands blows my mind. 🤯

I have a general question not in response to your work, which you know I love, but just in general. When did the concept of "mark making" start to be a thing?

I don’t know. Do you mean a thing with me or just in general? I think some of us enjoy the actual mark making and shapes. That’s how we “see” and enjoy expressing ourselves. And as we grow as artist’s we see how important the marks are in art

I meant in general as a term, but I love how you have described it here. It seams to have become a term used by many KZfaq artists. FYI, I just returned home from a visit to The Art Institute of Chicago (blessed to live only 18 miles west of there) to see the Cezanne exhibit. I don't know for sure, but feel fairly confident that your work has been influenced by his. I have to go back again! It is only here until September!
