" I tend to want to retreat
to a simple view. . . Life is so
loud these days. We are
bombarded with loud music
and loud people. I'm trying
to create these windows I can look at in order to re-center myself. . . windows that not only can re-center myself but also give people a respite from the world, too, and maybe help them re-center themselves as well.”
