The incarnations that appear in my work are always new and I meet them for the first time by drawing them.”

It's the idea of sharing enough of myself that it's not just all about, "Look at me, look at me." There's an element to it of, "You understand what I'm talking about, right? You've been in this place that I've been in," which makes it a richer experience.”
