Quote

Before I was through my teens, I had been introduced and exposed to artists who would, in later years, become legendary.

I have always been a dark writer.

However dark, however demanding the realities of existence are, artists provide the lift, the light, the ways to make it through. They help us find the joys and delights, the hopes we need for our days and hours. I am grateful for their gifts.

I grew up with artists.

Well, I worked with lots of different artists, of course.

I was constantly being around artists and Bohemian types.

There are artists, true performers that have come before me who have been a big inspiration to me. I hope I do the same for others.

The artists of the past who impressed me were the ones who really focused their work.

I suppose I see myself as a modern soul artist.
