WHAT I MAKE: Ceramics

TO GET THE CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING I…Nourish myself with the things I like makes me feel more connected to myself, a good reading, a good movie, music, a museum, art or landscapes that relax me, like my house in the country surrounded by olive trees.

DAILY NECESSITY: Spending time with my son.
