Getting ready to teach again has brought me words for my work.
Sumi-e is about touching the world around you
with all your senses,
and in turn, letting the world touch you
then learning to express that touch in the language of brush and ink.
I came out of the closet about 20 years ago. I had to open up, face the reality, and tell the world that "I am an artist". Every cell of my body screams "art", and I eat, drink and sleep art. Years later I find that my style has drifted far from the classic imagery, but had evolved into something totally mine. And it's that part that I work with everyday, trying to find my next boundary, a new twist, my unique contribution. It's a Karen Kurka Jensen.
