What would life be like without art? I cannot image a day without having art involved. Art for me is anything and everything to do with creativity, music, dance, drawing, painting, theatre and film.

What does a day in your art practice look like? I am very self-disciplined. I have a list of “to do’s” each day with stars for the priorities, including for my art practice and everything else in my life. Each day I cross off what has been done, leaving the rest of items. In terms of my ‘work’ items, it […]
