Life's no fun without a good scare!

About Me


MY APOLOGIES, BUT DUE TO THE HIGH VOLUME OF FRIEND REQUESTS I RECEIVE FROM BANDS I AM NO LONGER ACCEPTING BAND FRIEND REQUESTS. HOWEVER, IF YOU SEND ME AN EMAIL REQUESTING THAT I CHECK OUT YOUR BAND AND/OR ADD YOUR BAND I WOULD BE MORE THEN HAPPY TO OBLIGE.
I have a dark, sarcastic, twisted, demented sense of humor. I'm a bit shy at first, but once in a comfortable setting its hard to get me to shut up.
I consider myself to to be an open-minded skeptic. That is to say that I don't believe everything I hear, but I do believe that there are things that can't be explained yet just are.
My friends are very important to me, therefore I'm a very loyal friend. My animals are also very important to me. I've got 3 cats and a dog and I love them as if they were my children.
A PRAYER FOR ALL ANIMALS ( by Albert Schweitzer)"Hear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends the animals, especially for animals who are suffering; for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that will be put to death. We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity, and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals and so to share the blessings of the merciful."

I like to have fun and try to live without regrets.
I'm a crafter and self-taught artist, very much inspired by The Day of the Dead, Halloween and horror. I've always been a creative person having drawn and created things since I was a child, but recently I've totally absorbed myself in my art and am trying to improve my technique and polish up on my skills.

I used to host COBWEBS IN THE CLOSET, an internet radio station dedicated to hallowen and horror. However, I have since retired CITC so I can focus on creating my art and improving my skills.

I enjoy many different styles of art in its many different forms. I have an interest in low brow, outsider and mexican folk art. I like dark music, happy music, rock n' roll, the 1920's and 1950's, obscure movies (such as the Forbidden Zone and Flesh Gordon), cooking, tattoos, eating paste, cats, bats, creeps, freaks, spookshows, creepshows, sideshows, werewolves, vampires, the Universal Monsters, animals, the paranormal, paganism and spirituality.

I LOVE ANIMALS (especially my 3 cats and my dachshund).

I am a fan of many different styles of art and artists. I love Day of the Dead and Mexican Folk art which has greatly influenced my style of artwork. I also like creepy dolls, halloween, horror and carnival sideshow art.

I'm also a fan of Tom & Jerry cartoons, Lenore comics, Salad Fingers cartoons, black & white classic horror films, cult films, animation from the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's (i.e. Betty Boop, Felix the Cat, Max Fleischer's Superman), Halloween, comic books, BRUCE CAMPBELL, Batman, Catwoman, hot rods, hearses, cemeteries, bowling, playing pool, karoke, meeting new people, hanging out amongst the dead, n' stuff! Can't get enough of that stuff!

I'd like to meet:

...Ancient things with scales and wings scream of lands beyond wild dreams... I'd like to meet musicians and artists, weirdos, ghouls, spooks, kooks, freaks, and creeps! People who enjoy the darker things in life. People who can see a humor in all things and use their minds to create instead of destroy. I like open minded and fun people. People who are non-prentious, who are creative and express their individuality openly.
I'd also like to meet my favorite artists, particularly Gary Baseman, Frank Frazetta, Tim Burton and Camille Rose Garcia. Of my favorite actors I would like to meet Johnny Depp and Bruce Campbell.
