I am inspired by artists of all sorts, the places where I have traveled, and of course all the wonderful creative people in my life.
It is almost overwhelming how many family members of mine have been involved in creative and artistic professions. My father is a painter, my maternal grandfather was a painter and a well-known jeweler. My maternal grandmother’s brother Etienne Aigner is a world-renowned leather accessories designer. And her other brother is Lucien Aigner, the shy but talented photographer whose subjects included infamous people like Mussolini and Einstein.
