Fear ruled my creative life.  I was ignored by my family as a child and spent most of my day locked in my room drawing.  When I was drawing I escaped the fear.

When I was facing life as an adult I was afraid I couldn’t live doing art.  Fear.

Became a secretary for over thirty years.  Fear.

Depression took over.  Lots of antidepressant cocktails. Drinking too much. Fear.

Then I discovered tattoos and designed artist tattoos for my body.

It was how I opened the door to let art in.
