About Me


If you have ever surfed Rockabilly sites on the web, you've probably seen artwork from my website Shannanigan.com at some point. Though totally unknown, I get "borrowed" from a lot... LOL! These days I'm using DeviantArt to host my newest stuff... because I'm lazy and can't be bothered to update my own site. *Bad Shannon!*
So what can I tell you about me... I am an Agnostic Liberal Pro-Choice Democrat. I have no patience for racism, Right-Wing Conservatives or Christian "values" and think NASCAR racing is for sissies. I most likely won't add you if your a Republican whos favorite band is Britney Spears and you think wearing white athletic shoes is a good idea when dressing up to go out on the town. Though I have made a few exceptions for people with great personalities... I realize that personality can sometimes take up too much gray matter to allow for good taste. LOL!
I have recently relocated to Los Angeles... after living in Michigan, St. Louis, Chicago, Boston and Milan, Italy. Gotta go where the jobs are... a girl's got needs! ;)

WARNING: Political Post

I have a hard time expressing myself with words, which is why I draw for a living. Basically, Sarah Palin scares the living SHIT out of me. I ran across this letter by Eve Ensler, and it pretty much s...
