" I have had the good fortune to find significance in
the above quote. As an adoptee from birth, I reached mature
adulthood before knowing anything of my genetic makeup. Researching
my roots led to surprising and wonderful discoveries
a Scottish clan on one side, and poets and artists on the
other, notably a link via my Swedish grandmother to the pioneering
painter and illustrator Carl Larsson. Whenever inspiration
becomes elusive, I remind myself of this gift of inheritance
and with it, the responsibility of not letting the side down
and to keep on doing what I do best."
