I paint my own reality.
I am my own muse, I am the subject I know best.
Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?
I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.
I hope the exit is joyful and I hope never to return.
I paint flowers so they will not die.
I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone, because I am the person I know best.
