Artist Statement

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought

I summon up remembrance of things past,

I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,

And with old woes now wail my dear time’s waste.

– Shakespeare, Sonnets, XX

I spent a great deal of time satisfying others, but when reflecting some years back, there wasn’t a whole lot to reflect on.  Imaginary worlds created as a defense mechanism were all there was as far as experience.

So many places I’ve been, things I’ve done, but none were real.  Tired of living in an imaginary world.  It’s just not much fun.

Go where I want, when I want; say what I want, how I want.  Having so many means of expression and reflection is liberating.  And if only I understand them, that’ll have to do.

Absorbed in the creations of thy mind,

Forgetting daily self, my truest self I find.

– Margaret Fuller
