My main interest is of course Night Street Table Tennis, played while wearing the regulation short shorts with the glow-in-the-dark puffy paint lettering. I also enjoy making art, drinking wine, (frequently at the same time), books, records, vintage clothing, the public library, cooking extra-spicy fabulous food, collaging, 60's cookbooks, pictures of chicken legs and milk cartons and other interesting food from the ground, art parties, my herb garden, hanging out on my porch, and bringing glue and my sketchbook to bars so I can collage in a social setting.
fellow artists or just people who generally enjoy a good drunken evening of crazy talking...people who want to come to my art nights...or be on my Night Street Table Tennis Team.
