About Me

Created with the Kiwi Profile Editor

Favourite people, places, and things... by Katie Armstrong
People: primarily, but not inclusively, my friends and choice family members, my fellow artists, teachers and musicians - either local or from abroad.
Places: I love living in London, for now... my favourite places to frequent would be CTO for some funk, the Richmond for pint night, and the Alex P for tres yummy beers and uber chill atmosphere.. I love Victoria Park for ledge land, picnics, art in the park, philosophical conversations, and listening to the bells I love the studios at Beal. The darkroom, ceramics, painting and textiles.. all so nice. I love my bed, forests, beaches, and my moms place.. when she's not being crazy.,.
Things:concerts and shows, snowboarding, yummy beers (50, Leffe, St. Bernadus, Duvel...), swimming, foos ball, photography, camping, drawing and most of all anything textile. I LOVE TEXTILES! (that means fabric).


Some of my friends write graffiti.. and I think they're pretty good at it.

My Interests

textiles, fashion design, sewing, drawing, painting, photo, film, ceramics, crafts, beading, graffiti. ecology, art and fashion history, geography, world culture, travel, and music, especially music.

I love music that moves people. Whether that movement be to dance, cry, laugh, make love, rage, discuss, or create. Anything that helps you think differently and re-define what you already know is a good thing. Music can and should be impactful. It's art for your ears!



Movies:

Quentin Tarantino, Roman Palanski and Stanley Kubric. Dirty Dancing, Scarface, American Beauty, Citizen Kane, Half Baked, House of D, Predator and cool samurai movies!

Television:

X-files, Fashion Television, TNG, The Simpsons, The Office, and LOST.

Books:

fav book thus far.. Dracula maybe.. I love reading about travel, art, fashion and nature.

Heroes:

fire fighters
