The occasional lies behind the creative journey

“I presume that she [the journalist] will ask me about the inspiration for particular styles, and my answers will be mostly accurate.

However, sometimes I'm forced to lie a little, because the truth behind the creative journey is not always as glamorous as others anticipate.

My intention is to inspire people with my own inspiration - and, like many artists, I am sometimes better at creating than describing my work. ”
