I’m Famous (sort of)

Beautiful and thoughtful interview. I sense the strong connection between your art, your mother, and your children.

Thanks, Heidi. I appreciate your reading and commenting!

I loved the article. Thank you for sharing. Re art, family connection, etc: Recently another artist friend showed me a painting she did to specifically to help find closure after the loss of her mother. Did you similarly have any particular pieces that have had specific "therapeutic" goals for you? Or does that just sort of come up as you work? Just curious as you are always so interesting :-)

I do art in general because it soothes my soul. The connection with my mother and art started when I was a child on a beach, and my mother brought her sketch pad, and she taught me to draw in perspective. So it's all therapeutic.

I really appreciated learning the perspective of life as an artist. The book I just mentioned on my blog talks a lot about art; Chagall is one of the characters.

Mother in Israel,

Thanks for the book recommendation. She has cool-looking website: http://www.darahorn.com/
