"One of the things my career as an artist might say to young artists is: The things that are close to you are the things you can photograph the best. And unless you photograph what you love, you are not going to make good art."
"Photographs open doors into the past, but they also alloq a look into the future"
"The things that are close to you are the things you can photograph the best."
"I struggle with enormous discrepancies: between the reality of motherhood and the image of it, between my love for my home and the need to travel, between the varied and seductive paths of the heart. The lessons of impermanance, the occasional despair and the muse, so tenuously moored, all visit their needs upon me and I dig deeply for the spiritual utilities that restore me: my love for the place, for the one man left, for my children and friends and the great green pulse of spring."
"It's always been my philosophy to try to make art out of the everyday and ordinary...it never occurred to me to leave home to make art."
