Three Questions

At times, I find myself reinventing some of my ideas sometimes a subtle or drastic change.

Should there be a a comma between "At times" and "I find myself reinventing..."

I formally declared my decision to major in Fashion Design after reading “It pains me physically to see a woman victimized, rendered pathetic, by fashion.” from a book on YSL and “"I love beauty…it’s not my fault." quoted by Valentino from his movie the Last Emperor.


Are the quotes incorporated the right way?

And does sentence "Even though an inspiration is the catalyst for my most of my designs but there is also a small portion of my artworks that were created through my random and absentmindedness experimentation."

make sense? confuse you?

Thank you so much for your time!

1. Yay!

2. I think I understand what you mean... instead of periods for both quotes I changed them both to commas...?

I don't think "artworks" is a word. You could say "works of art", but "artwork" used with a plural verb is plural.

"absentmindedness" is a noun, so you wouldn't use it to describe "experimentation." Instead use "absentminded", which is the adjective form of the word.
