“I had no intention of becoming an artist. There was no childhood dream, no revelationary moment, no intuitive flash, and no channeling of Emily Carr. It was more that the specter of art-making appeared before me as an inflatable raft to a drowning woman and I hauled myself onto it as a way to save my life. I needed to see myself and know myself. Not surprisingly, I am virtually self-taught.”
Sheila Norgate excerpt from artist statement.
Sheila is responsible for sending me down the content management system road, when she contacted me last year to design a custom site her one mandate was that she had to be able to manage it herself. Kismet: I had been toying with the idea myself but had not found the time for development so thanks to Sheila for getting me started.
