Music has been my playmate, my lover, and my crying towel.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
As a teenager I started painting and playing guitar...Music has been my playmate, my lover, and my crying towel...This song (Until It's Time for You To Go) popped into my head while I was falling in love with someone I knew couldn't stay with me. The words are about honesty and freedom inside the heart.

Buffy Sainte-Marie
Grab a guitar, put some kind of strings on it, a banjo string, then a violin string, then a guitar string, tune it any way you want, and make some noise, and see what you get. And work on it until you get something that you think is interesting. That's all there is to art for me.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Digital imaging allows both groups to rise above the limitations of mess and clutter and mechanics, and apply our talents to creating images limited only by our imaginations.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
We also have the option of scanning in an image from outside the computer... a photo, or a sketch done with traditional tools and we can then paint, manipulate, process, change, and further develop the image within the computer, watching our progress on the monitor.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
