My interest in art began when…
I drew and painted incessantly as a kid and my parents encouraged it. My aunt was a textile artist and my father weaved tapestries.

Subjects I’m most drawn to…
I’m at a place with my work where all of my subject matter is personal and narrative. I’m guessing that will grow and change over time.

My very first art love…
Baldessari.

My art influences and inspirations…
I grew up in Los Angeles and I have always been drawn to the works of artists who came out of the West Coast. The California landscape also works its way into my pieces.

Favorite room in a museum…
I like the programs at the Hammer. Every floor of the new Whitney is inspiring.
