Who are you as a human being outside of the art you do? Walk us through your daily habits.

I believe that my creativity as an artist is deeply intertwined with my everyday life. I cannot tap into a nice workflow if my house/environment feels off balance or cluttered. I need a combination of good tunes, flowers, fruits, and a fresh pot of tea to start my day. Though I can’t say I’m 100% committed to any kind of routine, I often start my day by stretching my body and giving thanks. Vibes are important! And so is rest!
