I eat, sleep, and breathe guitar and music, seriously. I play in a local band. Also teach music and guitar, and do minor to somewhat major repairs . I have long almost to my waiste brown hair, blue/green/grey eyes - they change color. Thin to average build, 5'11" in better shape than most 20 year olds I know. Intelligent, kind, caring. Spiritual, but not down your throat, I have my path. When I'm not playing or something else with music, I do music stuff! I like to experiment with effect pedals and build my own. Modify my own guitars for special effects. Record and arrange different types of music. I teach guitar with an intuitive technique, from just strumming along with your voice to classical technique and form. Taylored to what the student is wanting, not what "strict" instruction demands, excepting classical technique. I usually teach people who are poor or disabled in some way, on a sliding scale - single parents get automatic discount. I have only two demands from students: really want to play (enough to practice), and either have or soon have a guitar. Otherwise I like to cook and bake, read encyclopedias for pleasure, embroider and sew my own clothing, tie flies poorly, make beaded earrings and necklaces, crafts, make marionettes, try to learn new Chinese characters, along with Egyptian, Japanese, Hebrew, Greek, Mayan, almost any language that is either dead, or has symbols. Each year my new resolution is to learn either one hard thing or a couple easy new things each year, one year it was electronics, another year it was Japanese hiragana and Indian beaded earrings. I like to sit in the park and watch people - they are so strange, and endlessy fascinating. Paint with acrylic and water, someday I'll have enough to afford a nice oil set, and draw with graphite and colored pencils. Draw with ink pens great discipline to not rely on the eraser, and tatoos. Harley Davidsons make my heart beat, women on Harleys make me salivate. I like to watch bands play, but then I get too itchy to want to play myself. Pizza in front of a starving person. :). Hang with friends.
