About Me


My name is Andi. I'm an artist, photographer, seamstress, webgoddess and otherwise multi-talented chick from NW Ohioland. There are outrageous claims that everything I touch turns into art.

People of the unpretentious and fun sort. Artists, writers, 3am Denny's loiterers, photographers, adventurers, VW junkies, models, thrift-store addicts, etc.

If you're a band/musician and you want to add me, you must donate used guitar strings to my Strung-Out jewelry project. Pretty please? ;)

Music:

Everything. Seriosuly. With a particular fondness for 80's things and gothy things and stompy industrial things and country things and whatever else might prod my fancy...

Movies:

I am completely uncultured. If you talk about something, I probably haven't seen it.

Television:

Give me the food network or give me death.

Books:

Everything I can get my hot little hands on.

Heroes:

Do the cape, tights, and fatal weakness make the hero?

It's because I don't want to be part of your mafia or play with your imaginary pet or whatever the hell else I'm being spammed to do. Sorry! The wedding went well. I decorated on the fly and it turned...

Reverse Racism?

The songs in my head...

I suppose the cool thing about having no radio in the car for a really long time, is that even if a song's been played to death for months, I probably haven't heard it yet. So driving home from Dayton...
