My Highlights from FOG Design+Art 2015
Most paintings and photographs I am attracted to come from an emotional reaction, whereas pottery, furniture, and objects are a more intellectual choice for me. I can ponder the line and form of a table for months before deciding if it fits within the story I’m telling. I am attracted to figurative art and to furniture with sensual lines, although that could change in a few minutes.
