Favorite artist • I just saw a show in Philadelphia of Paul Strand, which put me in touch with the artists of that era, such as Arthur Dove, Georgia O'Keeffe, Rockwell Kent, I love that time period in art. The painters that influenced my work directly though are artists like John Kensett, and the Hudson River School.
What are you reading • I'm currently reading 'Days of Abandonment' by Elena Ferrante. It reads like a classic Italian cinema film!
Hope to learn how to • Ride a horse. The few times I've been on horseback, I've questioned my sanity. Why am I on the back of this huge beast? Out West I see people on horseback and it seems so natural. It would definitely offer another, more intimate view of the natural world.
