Artist's Statement
I don’t have a separate studio.
My bedroom is my studio.
I work and I sleep in the same small space.
My studio contains only the modest size of my work; that’s all I need.

For now.

But I wonder - if I have a larger space, will my work expand as well? Feeling wild and free, will I be working on a huge canvas, dripping and splashing paints all over, trying to capture this tangled hair with a big, coarse brush?

Or - even in a large studio, will I work as before, drawing what’s available for me on a modest size of paper? Am I working on a small scale because of the tight space or is it really what I want?

While floating through these doubts and frustrations, a drawing comes to life.
