ON DISCOVERING BIG SUR

“We were initially surprised by the silence. My childhood years were spent in California and Montana. I lived near snow-covered mountains, which have their own stillness. It’s a unique silence here, however. It's all-encompassing. My house has a studio, which was a big change for me. Spreading out has been an enormous evolution, mentally. Living in such a stunning place shifts your perspective. I see all the stars at night; feeling so small evokes your humility.”
