"I believe it was the telling of stories that made us modern humans, because a story can carry lessons and history one generation to the next. I believe something happened around 70-100,000 years ago when two different types of ancient hominids bred and their offspring's brains were wired differently, enabling those offspring to imagine and tell stories, recounting of the past, imaginings of the future, rules to live by. This, I believe, is what happened and from which flowed art, the burial of the dead, religion, and culture - the first origins of ancient truth, legends, and myth, carried among us still. It was the telling of stories that made us human, and is still. My Strong Heart Series, in some small way, imagines how this might have happened, and how people today could have made such a discovery."
