As an early or mid-career artist you should be producing work on a regular basis and exhibiting at every chance you get. Each creation you make should be a more advanced version of the previous work.

But they are also powerful and beautiful in form and in life. Embracing this, I create figures of elemental women who may be delicate like a flower or a flame, but are powerful and confident in their skin.”
