I design for real people. I think of our customers all the time. There is no virtue whatsoever in creating clothing or accessories that are not practical. ↗
I paint mostly from real life. It has to start with that. Real people, real street scenes, behind the curtain scenes, live models, paintings, photographs, staged setups, architecture, grids, graphic design. Whatever it takes to make it work. ↗
I'm very drawn to characters who are very flawed. I'm less interested in characters who are just good or bad, because to me then they're not real people. ↗
Real people are places to me as much as persons: I want to see them, as I want to see the places I am fond of, in all weathers and at all times of the year. ↗
