I think the thing that makes me me is my love of art, seeing it and creating it. I love intersecting lines, but when I reproduce them, they’re not straight- they become organic and chaotic. I am a fast person but I spend a lot of time thinking and worrying about things like my health and the state of the planet. That wears me out and so I sleep a lot.

Relentless in developing businesses that change the world by creating opportunities & giving back. Helping start ups & existing businesses to redefine themselves to be more profitable, stable & in line with their values is my art that illuminates in it’s own very practical, down to earth way.

Work, love the others, have sex etc; about making my art works and seeing others’ works are great especially when I am in the studio or gallery; about loving others … it is great to take care of children and the elderly; about having sea… this is a hard bit as my hubby is not well – this is my simple life

I don’t really know. I’m a different you with different people. My interpretation of this is where I can be real you, and that’s when I’m with close friends but even then perhaps the real you is lost to me; and I’d have to search hard. What has made me is my experiences.

My past and an eye to the future. I try to focus on strength, equality, fitness and austerity. I wonder if I am lucky or that I just don’t pay attention to the bad things that happen. Ultimately I’ m waiting for the task that is too great….

At 3 and a half years old, during the 2nd world war, my first ‘conscious’ thought – “the world is mad!” as planes bombed a railways station near where I lived. Now, 2nd conscious thought, observing grown-ups, “they do not know what they are doing!” Now accept what happens, just let it be and often seeing the humour in what happens.

Find it hard to answer, feel that I maybe have a split personality another persona that is operating independently and I am just an observer, but this other person is not operating in my reality so I can’t fully understand what they are doing, maybe the type of person I wanted to be, had considered changing my name but maybe it takes more than that.

The need to do things for others no matter how big or small just to make their day better. The fact that I have big highs and lows which make me wildly enthusiastic or almost suicidal. The fact that I yearn for things that are clearly unattainable. The need to eat as much as possible thinking that it won’t affect the outer me because the skinny inner me should win but it never does.
