About Me

I am a visual artist living in the beautiful Northwest. I work at an antique shop where I am inspired by strange and great relics from the past. It's a great feeling to recycle the vintage items and to not keep buying new all the time. The Columbia River and natural parks and trails of the Northwest also inspire me to want to create, not to mention the interesting artists and collectors of this area. I enjoy sitting back and dreaming in an upright position before tackling the canvas, or art projects. View more of my art/photography at:

What Art Movement Are You?

What style of art best represents you? You might find out more about your personality than you think!

thought this was funny


You Are Surrealism
Dreamy and idealistic, you've created a world that is all your own.
It's very likely that you've either dabbled in drugs or are naturally trippy.
You are always trying to push beyond the boundaries of your culture and society.
You believe that art, love, and freedom can change the world.

I created this oil painting years ago, in my early 20's. My style has changed a bit. I was really into making up my own characters, and at the time it was entitled "The Apparition of the Fingerms Witness the Seperation of the Egg" But now I call it "Love". Hope it speaks to everyone! Comment on it if you are inspired to do so! LANA

My Interests

painting, experimentation, yoga, hiking, gardening, visiting museums, going on trips.

I'd like to meet:

People who are sincere and not totally self involved. Artists and people from around the world who live eclectic and/or eccentric lifestyles. People who genuinely care about the world and people around them. Perhaps some models.

Music:

Anything Celtic influenced, also folk, some alternative rock and 60's and early 70's psychedelia. Donovan, Clannad, Shocking Blue, Jefferson Airplane, Pink Floyd, Love, Strawberry Alarm Clock, Spirit, early Alice Cooper, Velvet Underground, early Bowie, Marc Bolan, Beatles inspired bands, etc..... Musicians who use color as a medium. Also like some experimental jazz. Depends on my mood.

Movies:

Too many to mention, but I love good actors and stories that make me think.

Television:

Six Feet Under, Medium, Monarch of the Glenn, Carnivale, Dead Like Me, Black Books.

Books:

Tom Robbins, Stephen King, nonfiction, Horizon art books, The 50 Secrets to Magic Craftsmanship by Salvador Dali still inspires me to paint after first reading it over 10 years ago.

Heroes:

Many surrealists and a few that aren't.
