Seeing your new photo art each day is inspiring. Can you tell us about your latest artwork?
Can you explain your artistic process? Which artists/photographers are you influenced by?
Because I always have my camera ready, I take a lot of pictures. I usually don’t go out looking for certain subjects or topics. When I see something that strikes me, I take a few shots. Then, periodically, or when I am designing a new collection, I go back through and I often notice themes running through my photos. I use this as a jumping off point for design inspiration.
Can you explain your artistic process? Which artists/photographers are you influenced by?
I am greatly influenced by art. Color is a huge inspiration for me, so I love to spend time in galleries and museums, online, or reading books. My favorite artists are Mark Rothko and Clyfford Still. Their use of color is masterful. I also find great design and life inspiration from Simon Alcantara, a genius jewelry designer. As far as photography?
I find great inspiration from the photos of the amazing Frank Cunha III !!!
Have you ever considered publishing an ebook of your work?
As a matter of fact, no. I never have. Hmmmm….
I am glad we put that thought in your head!

How has social media changed your life? Does your family support it?
My family is extremely supportive of what I do. They give me the love and caring that I need, every single day, in order to create. I could never do what I do without them. They are my soul.
How do you balance your work like, home life, and social media presence?
I don’t! Whatever takes precedence on any given day is what gets done. It always seems to work out. I am fortunate that my studio is in my home, so it makes things much easier.
