Role model ...

My grandmother was an artist and lived her life with energy, style and a certain bohemian flair. I loved to visit her and be caught up in her life and embraces. She introduced me to a whole new world that I still draw inspiration from today.  

I remember being a young girl and spending time with her in her studio. She would set me up at an easel with some paints and guide me on painting a person. I was pretty crap at the whole art thing and became an accountant. However, this guy always reminds me of that special time.

The extra photo is my grandmother Kate in her studio.
