    "Anna and Sister, a portrait of a woman and her cat that bristles with detail: a closet full of clothes that you just know are fashion forward; and above all, that insane ceiling, those lightning-lit walls, and those floorboards, like a hundred jungle cats pressed flat— lions and tigers and leopards, oh my. In this world, all roads lead to Anna. It’s another Kalenderian love letter. He’s made the painting, but she is its beating heart."

    "In my life, I have these moments, often during some mundane activity, where I have a profound revelation about something, maybe something about the nature of a certain friendship, or about realizing I may not have the life I envisioned when I was younger. I consider these to be “super moments,” a reckoning of some sort, and I think painting is a great way to try and capture a moment like this."
