George Wayne, an Alexandria, VA based artist, participates in the Artists Interview Artists Project. Below George responds to another artist's five questions (Michelle McAuliffe from Washington, D.C.). In order to participate, George had to provide me with five questions for some other artist to answer. The assigning of questions to artists is completely random. If you're an artist and interested in participating, let me know.

1. Which sense do you use the most as an artist?
Sight is the main sense that I use as an artist.
2. How long does it take for an idea to appear on paper?
Usually, an idea is realized immediately, once I put pencil/pen to paper or when I open up a graphics program and start creating lines and shapes.
3. What do you hope to get out of your work?
Professionally, I hope to find a larger audience who will appreciate and enjoy my work.
4. How do you find your influences?
My work is mainly inspired by Minimalist music, and I usually find my influences by accident when I discover new composers.
5. How do you nurture your creativity?
By thinking about and creating new artwork on a daily basis.

Your work displays quite well in an actual setting. I had the opportunity to view your sculptures and paintings last week at Minimal Works in Philly.
All the best,
Jon
