If you overdo something, you end up typecast. You always have to expand.
We had a very normal, sort of ghetto, urban upbringing. My father was a,bus driver and my mother was a seamstress and a substitute,schoolteacher, off and on. So, that all adds up to no money.
My first artistic love was drawing and painting. .
