My mediums constantly surprise
me by their inter-relatedness. I will work on a page for a while and discover forms that I
can use in Television and vice versa. The ideas of design can be translated from one
material to the other. Writing, for me, is the best tool for transporting ideas across
medium lines. I find myself writing in many of my spare moments. The root of my impulse is
both figurative and organic, my finished work often embodying the human and organic forms.
I find inspiration in the work and lives of several artists including Gabriel Garcia
Marquez, Octavio Paz. Among masters, the chief influence on my
creativity is Cervantes , an Spanish writer , whose works were refined down to the most
important elements.
He was able to express his ideas through very simple forms, keeping true to subject
matter yet in a very provocative manner.
I appreciate these details about Cervantes's work as well as his sheer volume of work.
He inspires me by his ultimate dedication of his life work: Don Quijote
