While waiting for lunch,
i started drawing and my
Mother started telling me about the late
Edna Manley,It 'touched my
Soul' and i knew i was going to
be an artist;it was a divine/spiritual decision that art choose me;I new from about age three on that,there was a 'love relationship'with drawing but I could not explained it then,until I was mature;I did not have a decision with art,art just came and spoke and I followed the dialogue;
