About Me

I'm cynical, passionate, curious and cunning. True, loyal, spiritual and loving. I'm a painter, a wife, a mother, a daughter and a sister.I'm your best friend or your worst enemy; all depends on you. I also stir a caldron. I was born on June 21st 1953, it was Fathers' Day and 102 steamy degrees. The place of my arrival was the Army Hospital on Govenors Island...NYC! I was raised in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens New York. I get tears in my eyes when I hear =the word "stoop" . "Louies" candy store on Parkside Avenue; he made the best chocolate egg creams on the east coast! The autumn days in Prospect Park too. Enough with the misty water colour memories...I love to laugh so hard I cry, sleep until 1 in the afternoon and then get up and paint. My Daughters laugh & beautiful spirit make my heart ache...Mr. Mylows little voice and crooked smile, my Husbands embrace and how he tells me I Love You everyday! My fan brushes are the bomb and the cheese grater is amazing...this is a little about me and a few of my favorite things!! I wish to express my complete and utter disgust for the violation of my freedom of speech, freedom of religion and Big Brother cameras and noses spying on us all!! How about a good old fashioned revolution???? La Vita e Bella! For Mama, In Loving Memory...Until We Meet Again...Ti amo.For My Mylow...Ti em Sempre

Oh my Goddess...this MySpace is such a soapbox...I'm in heaven! I've got an interest in gourmet cooking and baking. It's the witch in me...always have to be stirring that caldron...Cackle, Cackle and Cackle!! Decoupage is cool and I just love building a mystery with paper mache. I've been know to crochet a few lovely items in my time too. I enjoy museums, art galleries, flea markets and thrift shops. Wine tasting in my backyard or on the balcony under the stars.
