I'm a very aesthetic person, I'm constantly finding things I like in nature, on the street, art, fashion, architecture, books, blogs, and actually I don't really notice collecting these visual things! But, when I start working with a piece, it all comes out of my brain in an intuitive way. That's the best way I can explain it. As a downside, I can't stand living with things I find ugly, so it can be a problem sometimes.
