Biographical Information: The two emotions in life which interest me the most are the intimate and the heroic and I seek to combine these in my work. I feel that women have a special attachment to nature in their ability to echo creativity. This is not just a physical thing but spiritual kinship to the creative force. (Ross-Paul, 1991)
