Specialist note

"I am very passionate about my art. I (unconsciously) breathe art, think art and live art. As an artist my mind is constantly attuned to my paintings, Sometimes I can't sleep at night because I am thinking about my work. Oh, what would I do with that yellow? The yellow keeps coming to my mind."
