How long have you been creating?

I began my art career at the age of three when my mom couldnt stop me from drawing on the walls. She bought me my first sketch pad and marker set. By the time I was four, I was actually a professional, and had my first exhibiton in Riverside calif. folloed by exhibitions in Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco. By the the time I was 6, I was a has been, and wanted to be a nurse anyway....

What, besides your art, brings you creative fulfillment?

I love music of all kinds, probably because i'm totally inept when it comes to learning how to play anything. I really love traditional Irish music, and find it really gets me fired up to paint

What are your motivations for creating?

hmmm money? LOl not really, I just love to create artwork, and trying out new things.

How do you know when a piece you're working on is done?

I'm really bad at deciding that a piece is finished... I usually depend on my boyfriend to say "that's enough! it's done!"

What do you find stimulating right now? How does this influence your creative process?

Right now I'm taking belly dancing classes I'm really excited about starting a series of paintings based on middle eastern dance
