About Me

I'm a 25 year old artist from Chicago. According to the Keirsey temperment test, I am an INFJ (an introverted, intuitive, feeling, & judging person). Zodiac-wise, I am a Capricon w/ Pisces rising. I'm proud to be a determined yet sappy GOATFISH!
I am friendly, loyal, sensitive, creative, and hard working. I value respect and honesty. My best personality trait is my sense of humor. My best physical traits are my eyes.
I take refuge in my art. When I make or become art, I find peace within. I am very passionate about my work and strive to make, breathe, and be art.

My Interests

Art, sex, and stimuli.

I'd like to meet:

Currently, I'm looking to connect with passionate people who have great senses of humor. People who aren't afraid to be themselves. People who understand that rebellion is born within the soul. Artists and musicians who feel instead of regurgitate.
Quality over quantity. Talent over fame.
