“And when you clear away the cobwebs of the description of every job in the world, at the bottom of that job is service.”

But I learned that art can be found in all of life, even in pain.

So for them 15 years is a blink of an eye. I am nothing but grateful.

I have candles going, and small objects that remind me of what I am working on, or bring me into the world of the character.
