A quote I love… ”As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life” John Lubbock

If I were an instrument, I would be…a piano. I love the musical sounds of a piano but it also causes me to think on the 1980’s song by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder and their message about trust, love, respect and understanding.

My favorite artist is…John Singer Sargent, an American painter. I especially enjoy his watercolor paintings.

I am inspired by…Our World; people’s incredible spirits and nature’s beauty that surround us.
