“Sometimes when dealing with time or budget constraints, you're forced to make unexpected creative moves. I think I've learned to go with that. You can always bounce back, and it gives you a surprise.”

“I try to give readers a sense of the movement and the liveliness of a place through the people. People are the environment.”

“The truth is there is a grace to doing this job well. It often involves swallowing your pride and putting the artist's best interest first, always.”
