Q. If you weren’t teaching art, what would you be doing?
A. “If I wasn’t teaching, I would be spending more time in my studio doing my work.”
Q. Where do you look for inspiration?
A. “Travel has always been something that I have drawn not inspiration but energy from. Going to museums in Paris and school there for a summer, Vienna, Summer Academy in Salzburg, extended stays in places. I visit New York regularly and it is always an inspirational shot in the arm to visit many of the galleries and museums I have come to love. It’s more about the energy I draw from these places than inspiration, that really comes from within me; I don’t really need to look for it. I also used to scuba dive quite a bit and have always loved being near the ocean, it has a very relaxing regenerative effect on me.”
Campus participates in Haiti relief projects
This month’s Reflect and Connect takes place on Wednesday, Jan. 27 at 5 p.m. in the Ford Atrium. Maya Angelou’s poem, “The Sweetness of Charity,” will lead to a discussion on charity to gain support for the Haiti relief effort. Volunteer Central will be there afterward to allow anyone to sign-up who wishes to help. This is just one of the many active steps Millersville is taking in response to the crumbling aftermath of the earthquake in Haiti.
