My day begins at dawn as I take my cup of strong black espresso outside to watch the sunrise. I learned this ritual from my mother, who worked in a bread shop. Bakers are the great philosophers of the world, mostly because they have to get up early. When the world is quiet, great art is created - or, at the very least, conceptualized. Now is the moment to sketch, make notes, and dream. Adriana Trigiani
About This Quote

I always wake up at dawn, enjoy my cup of strong black espresso, sketch, make notes and dream. I love coffee. It is my favorite drink, the best thing I can do for myself. I wish to become a great artist one day. My favorite food is bread.
