I met Donnalee Downe a few decades ago when she opened a gallery space attached to her home in Charlottetown, and the Peake Street Collective was born. I attended many of the opening parties over the years, and even submitted one of my early paintings for one of them. I knew I wanted to talk to Donnalee about making art because she's always had a unique style and is such a champion and a mentor for other artists.

She refers to an interview/article by a musician and neither of us could think of who it was. Turns out it was Brian Eno - here is a link to "Composers as Gardeners":
