Horse in Rain<br />

How often do you paint how many times a week I have two full time jobs; teaching and painting. My studio time<br />

is blocked out just like a job. I spend anywhere from 20-40 hours a week painting.<br />

What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for. Being kind.<br />

There are many culprits that can crush creativity, such as distractions, self-doubt and fear of failure. What tends<br />

to stand in the way of your creativity I think self doubt is always near, but that is why I<br />

keep making work. Doubt in my abilities, vision, etc. is a motivator for me; I certainly do not let it crush my creativity.<br />

How do you overcome these obstacles I accept obstacles as part of the artistic process. I try not to let a day go by that<br />

I do not work, the continuum is important for me.<br />

What are your inspirations for your work Present and past experiences in the outdoors. The rural setting I grew up<br />

in and the rural mountain setting I live in now.<br />

What is your favorite way to get your creative juices flowing I make work. Again, the making the process is where<br />

I like to be. As I work, ideas snowball, and suddenly I am working on 10 or more paintings all headed in a direction that<br />

is exciting, undefined, and optimistic.<br />

Which work of yours is your favortie The work I am making right now for my show at Gallery MAR in Park City in<br />

February. Ask me the same question in a few months and it will be whatever work I am creating then.<br />
