Thanks so much, Heather! When working with data systems, my role was often integrator and many of the projects were about integrating many systems to work together. So that may have affected to my art (or vice versa).

Thank you for the lovely comment, Stephanie!

Thank you, Donna! Yes, I think my mother was proud, and definitely every color needs a chance!

Thank you for your comment, Louisa! I think it’s a wonderful idea to get inspiration from children’s drawings. It would also be a beautiful tribute to your son. A Dutch abstract artist Karel Appel has done that, and as a teenager, I also tried that approach a couple of times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karel_Appel

Thanks so much, Phyllis! The encouragement that we get as a child carries a long way!

Thanks, Maria, I totally get the feeling when someone gives a bunch mixed with white!

Thank you, Karyl!

Thank you, Joan, also for sharing a story about your mother. Does your art have butterflies, I wonder!

Thank you, Wendy!
