I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm an art student. Well, technically I'm a "Pre-art" student until I submit my portfolio. After that I need to apply to the Art Education program so that I may teach art. I'm interested in so much in the art field, it was difficult picking just one major. I'm getting old(er) and it is my time to stick to something for once! I would like to take some business classes sometime in the future (I wanna be like Martha Stewart, minus going to prison). I'm also curious about graphic design and I have a knack for interior decorating (thanks to my mom and HGTV). I think that all people are creative, they just need to find there niche. Once it's found, the possibilities are endless! I wait tables to pay (or not pay) the bills. I've lived in Charlotte for over a year now. I'm finally making new friends and rekindling old friendships (awwww). Whether I'm an pre-art or art major, I'm still an artist. I work on side projects when I have the time. I would love to make something for you, just ask! PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profile

My Interests

I enjoy painting, drawing, decoupage, photography, music, watching movies, red wine, socializing, staring at the computer for hours, learning, writing, and traveling. I also enjoy the ocassional gallery crawl/hike, concerts, and museums.

I'd like to meet:

Fellow artists, people who set and meet their goals, writers, thinkers, and well just genuine people who are actually nice. Fakers, snobs, and sketchy people need not apply.

Music:

I love all types of rock, jazz, funk, classical, pop, bluegrass, old school r&b, and some rap. I just like music in general and I am open minded to anything old and new.

Movies:

I like quirky indy films, dramas, thrillers, foreign films (especially french films), comedies, and well... I'm really not that picky!

Television:

I love comedies and cartoons. Monty Python, Kids In The Hall, The Original Whose Line is it Anyway?, and The Simpsons. Oh and The Cosmos!

Books:

Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass. Lewis Carrol's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass.

Heroes:

My mom. My dad. My Friends
