You went to college for german studies and studied the holycost. You also did a lot of ned modelling, which is actually something i don't talk about a lot in the book or out in the world. I didn't know how you became a money making art maker, but i figured i would figure it out. And right out the gate, out of college, i started street performing m which was technically a kind of making art. But between standing on a box painted white and collecting money as a busker and doing, i did a much-loved form of adult education life drawing and sculpturing and painting.
