When go around Europe as a student , she lead off developing her very own peculiar draught technique building up tone with chiliad of ok cross - hatching lines like an egg tempera painting . “ It ’s an insane way to cast ” , she say , “ but the result detail and luminance is worth the amount of effort .

It was all abstractionist and conceptual art when I attend university . My teacher told me that nonliteral artistry went ‘ out ’ in the Middle Ages and that I should express myself using variant and form , but splashes on canvas and rocks on the trading floor drill me . I bonk what I require : I require to create something no one had ever go out before , something that was brewing in the back of my genius . I used to sit down for hours in the library imitate Durer , Memling , Van Eyck , Goya and Rembrandt . The lensman , Diane Arbus , was another of my aspiration .
