99% NO.6 SunnyOffset Lithograph, Hand Colored, 2013 7 x 5 3 8 inches

an instant of clarity came over me

I am instinctively drawn to things that connect to my personal narrative as a point of departure: a comb or a strand of hair

but it is all inside of me and my lived experience

Between Body and Soul

I dreamed of myself as a great painter

My work is really spiritual in the sense that I am always thinking of this life and what it really means

I always receive meditative and peaceful feelings from them

and nostalgia for Japan

There we saw the country people working the land

poured concrete slabs becoming floors and walls
