Hobbies
writing, painting, loving, making things, hearing and spinning tales, listening to and making music, taking photos, keeping journals, creating and appreciating beauty, gratuitous eating and sleeping, learning, drawing, collecting books and underwear, dreaming, cooking up money-making schemes, drinking hot chocolate, shopping Goodwill for weird hand-me-downs with potential, staying up all night drinking and talking with good friends, rocking.
Artists I Adore
I very much appreciate the old master painters, especially Parrish, Waterhouse, Bouguereau, Mucha, and fantasy artists and illustrators like John Anster Fitzgerald, Edward Burne-Jones, Arthur Rackham, Edward Robert Hughes, Richard Dadd, and Ida Rentoul-Outhwaite. But I also have a major appreciation for more "low-brow" art forms- I'm enamored with tattoo art, comic/graphic art, pinups, animation, and 60's gig posters in that tripped-out, faux-Nouveau style. I love the late Marty Emond and Sailor Jerry, David Mack, Brom, Jhonen Vasquez, Bill Watterson, Ross Campbell. Norman Rockwell was a master. So was Gil Elvgren. I like Rion Vernon, Aaron Jasinski, Linda "Enayla" Bergkvist, Ursula Vernon, and Liselotte "Minnaloushe" Eriksson. Relative unknowns you should definitely Google include Desiree Isphording, Isa Maria, Jim Sweet, Morgana Wallace, Tegan Coddington, Christina Beller, Erin Kelso, Jeff Simpson, and Felix Eddy. Ten zillion more. I love artists of all shapes and sizes. 3 With all the other people's art I look at and admire, I have an inferiority complex so big it's surprising I get anything done at all.
I'd like to meet:
...anybody fun and interesting with an I.Q. higher than that of spinach, who won't stalk me and do funny things to my butt. I know. I'm paranoid. *adjusts her tinfoil hat*

The Obligatory Celeb List:
I'd like to have lunch with Marilyn Manson. He seems like an intelligent, interesting, funny guy.
I'd like to have a beer with Ed Kowalczyk. Or two. Or three... Actually as many as it would take to lure him into bed.
