For a few years, but I don't like to be art directed, unless it's something I love.

I just make what I want. I don't work anymore but have major body issues and can't always function well.

I create and watch my grandchildren.

Thank you so much!

I looked it up - been gone all day overtown, meaning off the island for shopping at Costco, etc.

Thank you for that link and Ki-Lin!
