Sonja’s work is very compelling. She can, and often does, tell the viewer when she did each painting, and what she was feeling and trying to express. I also love her last name. I’d prefer Michael Barbaric to Mike Smith! Maybe …………
“I paint, therefore I am. Nothing in the world makes me as happy as the process of creating. And I can’t wait to see what I’ll do next. Oh how I love new ideas.”
“When it comes to art that I do, especially painting and drawing, what matters to me the most is the idea. Execution is important but I’m not very preoccupied with style. I guess you could say that I like to experiment and let my own art surprise me. These ideas I get come to me in a flash.”
“Before I even start doing anything I see a clear image, a visualization of an idea in my head, and I end up just following that vision through. Very often I feel extremly compelled to get these images out of my mind instantly because I become obsessed with them.”
Destructive Testing 
Some of your post have drooling… I would love to collect art …I have only 25% of my data plan left so I dare not browse a lot. Have you posted your mobile on etsy yet?
I’ve sent you a personal email.
