”An artist should possess consistency, perseverance, self-respect, determination, and above all, discipline.”
What drives you?
Mission. The task I’ve set for myself and need to accomplish… Certain people can also be very inspiring in different ways.
What else do you do?
I’m a mom. Which means — almost everything.
What should an artist possess — qualities and skills?
Besides talent — consistency, perseverance, self-respect, determination, and above all, discipline.
Criticism? Who and what can influence your work? …the presentation or placement of your work?
Deadlines are useful to me, because I’m always struggling with the last item from the previous question.
What good can come out of this situation?
Conditionally speaking, boredom — which is necessary for imagination.
Let me clarify so I’m not misunderstood — an abundance of free time.
Beer or wine?
Always wine.
Do you recycle?
Ideas, yes. Packaging, unfortunately not — but I would love to recycle.
Book / Movie?
It’s really hard to choose, but the first that come to mind are Mephisto by Klaus Mann and Under the Volcano by John Huston.
And music…?
Lots of music — it’s very important to me. Dylan’s new single, which I’ve been listening to on repeat for days since it came out.
