“Thinking about being an architect earlier in my life actually focused me on fine art. I went back to school and quickly decided that fine art is where I should focus. But some of my pieces are definitely very architectural. I’ve always used color in my work and I have to say as time as gone on I’ve moved more and more toward black and white. I think that’s because I’ve become more interested in sculpture. I think of of myself as a maker of things, not a painter.” – Howard Hersh (Building 117, Studio 3103)
