Today, at the ripe age of 98 one of my favorite most influential artists, Louise Bourgeois died. She was 98, so its all good. But she was an amazing prolific artist, who did not shy away from sex and humanity- which I was always really affected by. She was the picture of a vibrant artist all the way into her 90s... She reminded me of my grandma- a fully alive, evolving strong, creative woman! Amazing! Below: my first tattoo, a Bourgeois drawing... for my Grandma Genevieve
