Inspiration

Frida Kahlo

The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.

Toni Ciserella

I have to admit, I am a frustrated artist. I use the term artist in reference to myself in that I imagine, learn and create art. I believe frustration is the bi-product of being an artist, better yet it is why I am an artist. My frustration lies in my need to make meaning in this life, when in fact more often than not, there is none. It is with this fear I choose to find meaning in all things.

Georgia O'Keefe

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.
