legato on crescendoh

i had the pleasure of being asked
a few questions by the lovely (and talented)  jenny doh,
(for legato, which is a section of her
FABULOUS website that goes
by the name of crescendoh).

if you have a sec, perhaps you would like
to head on over to cruise her lovely website
OR to read my interview to delve deeply into
my rather simple mind!


there are so many things i could say
about this...  but the main thing that i was 
sort of surprised by was how i tormented
myself over every word.
(you would have thought i was writing my dissertation!)
when in fact i was answering simple questions
about the person i know the best (me).  



but you know...  i had to consult someone
else when i was answering the question, what do you like to do
beyond create?  i could think of NOTHING,
and i had to call one of my closest friends to tell her about
how i didn't know the answer-- and she
had to tell me all the things i like to do.  she had to
remind me how i love to try things, and how i adore
a good tour.

it was through my good friend that i could draw myself
in...  i don't know what i would do without the eyes
of my friends to help me see myself.

so this is a thank you to jenny, and to all
of my friends (old and new) who help me be myself
everyday.

  10. First, you look like you are a teenager in that picture and you make me feel very old. I was a little girl with pigtails once - that drew on every thing I could find. I never got to go to art school and learn how to marry my art with the amazingly fast paced technology of the times. So I still doodle... and I still dream of one day growing up to be like all these young artists who can do such amazing things - like making a pen and ink drawing appear on a locket or a mirror...

    Teach me?

    Do you have a how-to? A favorite book? A weekend to spare in Austin? I make a mean Italian espresso.
