I've been dancing around the edges of art since I was an infant. My grandmother was an artist & she used to let me play in her oil paints, smooshing it between my fingers and toes and reveling in the feel of it. For a long time I lost that love of art. After my grandmother died I found myself once again searching for meaning in art, & one night when I was grieving I emptied a tube of oil paint across her easel and mashed my palms into it.
