My inspiration comes from all around me and everything I see, but primarily from light, which is ironic since I work in the dark to produce my work. Shadows, reflections, little sparks or color — all part of everyday life — catch my eye and make me think. Music is also a great inspiration — music of all kinds. I might work to opera or jazz one day, rock the next and Johnny Cash the third, but they all produce a rhythm that becomes a part of the work.
