My friend Mo gave me this list which came from Art & Life when I was teaching at her house last week. She wanted everyone to fill it out and I thought I would post my answers here, just for fun.

My current art project is: making myself a journal for Artfiberfest.

Current favourite quote: "We Were Made For these Times"-you can read it here. It's the last one on the page. It's the most powerful and inspiring thing I have ever read. My favourite parts is where it says "One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul."
