All my stories take place on the West Coast - not the beach, but smaller inland towns. I feel homesick, and I find inspiration in capturing that.
Whether it's a leaf from a tree, the supermarket or person, everything is art and movement, it's all inspiration.
Everything you do in life or experience in life gives inspiration for the creative process. But it also depends ultimately on what the consumer wants.
Inspiration is everywhere - life, travel, childhood, nature - it depends on how you see it, how you can absorb the inspiration, and it depends on how your mind thinks. It could be a pattern on the floor that may be the next pattern I put on a cake, it just depends upon how you take it, when you're seeing it and what you're looking for.
My inspiration for new products comes from moments in my life or what's happening around me.
When you're famous, you have a certain sense of responsibility because so many people are looking at you for inspiration and for influence.
