"Surround yourself with beauty. Feed your soul. The butterfly has wings, so do you. Many of my designs come from within. Nature is my inspiration. My intention when I watercolor is to create beauty and simplicity, and to let that beauty and simplicity be understood by others. If the work of art created brings joy, then the intention is complete. The purpose is fulfilled. Surround yourself with beauty."
