More Q&A with Cross Stitch Collection Magazine

Here are the final two questions from my recent interview with Cross Stitch Collection magazine. I hope you've enjoyed seeing them as much as I did answering them.

What or who can you not live without when it comes to painting?
A sense of humor. After all, everyone has an opinion when it comes to a painting, and when someone says something critical, the best thing to do is chuckle and remind yourself that painting pictures is the most enjoyable way to make a living.

When did you last stop and think “Wow, that’s amazing!” and what was it that made you do so?
The Statue of David in Florence. (pictured) The ability of the human hand and eye to craft works of great wonder never ceases to amaze me. A great work of art needs no translation; it is a language unto itself.
