There is a woman, who has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I literally can't think of a time when she has not been there. She's been there through the good times... and the really bad. And no matter what..... she's always looked out for me. And you know what? She didn't have to. Not once did she have to be there... not once did she have to do all that she did for me. I may have been a total shit to her when I was growing up... but I did see what she did... It did have an effect on me. And now I see her influence in my life.. but the most profound influnce has been over my art. So I want to say thank you. Thank you for all that you have done for me... thank you for being there... Thank you.
