• Who are your favorite artists? Who influences you?
Children are my favorite artists. They are not afraid (until someone makes them that way) and they create because it's fun and enjoyable. Not to mention they love to get messy, and into what they are doing. There is typically no holding back. It's pure, real and just plain awesome.
