This group of work was born out of my love of the following:

• laughter
• the lazy aroma of coffee brewing and the gurgling drippy sound that goes with it
• words I don't recognize and have to look up
• hum of chains on my car while driving in soft snow
• my super friends
• the library
• the continuous changing tone of the sky
• fresh sheets on my bed
• hang in there baby" cat poster
• the grandma sandwich
• a blank canvas
• the courage I witness working with Adaptive Sports
• competing with the roar of my car's engine in song (and winning)
• camus, kafka, dostoevsky, dickenson
• music - new and old
• mashed potatoes
• watching baby Bridget jam on the drums
• waking 15 minutes before my alarm
• daredevil (not the movie)
• cadmium medium red
• gracious kind people
• art that makes me wish I had thought of it first
• kisses on the forehead
