About Me

Hi!
My name is Christopher. I've established this site in pursuit of finding like minded individuals, working for art, beauty, truth and peace. Together, maybe we can change the world - or at least...what? Hell if I know. But wouldn't it be cool to find out?
Cheers,
Christopher F. Lapinel
