I have always been inspired by Karen Bernard personally the model she provides as a female artist continually doing her work, original, honest, rigorous and not affected by trends or fads. NDA has integrity presenting a wide range of artists, jurying them fairly and always being interesting and interested.

I am happy to have been an artist they presented.
