I met with a friend today who has had enough of being the artist everyone wants her to be and has spent her time recently dedicating herself to her own artistic fancies. It’s the person I want to see in her – not the one who wants to succeed in artist-ness but the one who wants to express herself no matter the outcome. To thine own self be true.

Indeed Alice – I have this great photograph of a woman in 1800 garb about to walk off a precipice and the caption says sometimes the best place for a woman is out on a limb.
