I think I knew from when I was about 5 that I wanted to be an artist, that that's what I loved to do. I'm so grateful to be able to make a living out of what I like doing best. I really can't do anything else! The idea of being in an office and having to deal with all that…it's a terrifying thought and it helps me make my deadline. But I never feel that I've nailed it. It's an evolving process.
