The State Fair of Texas Totem Exhibitions—these projects take time and lots of patience’s working with my studio partner (my sister).  She likes to make changes at the last minute—but I love her for that and she normally is always right about the change—don’t tell her that J

Describe your studio. 
It is located at 8612 Forest Hills Blvd in Little Forest Hills, in my sister’s garage. We took over her garage, at least half of it and we have students on most Thursdays.  We only charge a minimal charge of $5.00 for 3 hours of fun. It is always a work in progress, get new items, make room and since we do our mosaics in this studio—we have lots of found objects that we incorporate into the studio—tables, chairs, shelving—great hog poj of items.

What type of music do you listen to while you work?
Oldies, country

Where do you find your inspiration?
Normally by just picking up an item feeling the vibes from the piece or seeing that perfect piece while curb shopping and knowing that you will find a home or project that will make the piece look perfect.

Do you have any advice for other artists?
Just do what feels good.
