“I have the old ugly olive green bath tub, toilet and sink. The counter top has a green and white swirl look, the floor has 3 different kinds of green mixed in it. There is a beige and olive green tile border around the shower and bath tub. In my opinion there are too many greens, they don’t match – the whole things looks straight out of the 70s. I will get it all redone one day, but for now do you have any suggestions? We don’t have much money to put towards the project right now, but I’m wondering if we should paint or maybe wallpaper? Thanks!”

How long have you been painting?
I have been painting since the summer of 1996. It was a very cathartic time. Until then I had journaled obsessively. I stopped writing virtually overnight as I struggled through an existential/spiritual crisis. I found solace in the visual creative process. Those initial, explosive works, have fueled the last 14 years of creative exploration and curiosity.
