About Me

flashvars="userID=38434035&bgColor=10079487&bgColor2 =10079487&transitionSpeed=4&transitionStyle=b&sh owCaptions=1" width="445" height="230" name="slider" align="middle"/I have discovered I am a cross between Frida Kahlo and Bridgett Jones- this is a very frightening thing to discover about one's self. At heart a poetic soul- a playwright, screen writer, poet & fine artist- and absolute peace advocate. Love to travel & take in the arts- if I had my way I'd be in Europe right now, at a tiny cafe' off a canal in Venice "Al Pescador" with a sketch pad, some pastels, a journal, and my dearest friend/love. If I had my way again, there would be more peace in the world, and there wouldn't be a new endangered species every 24 hours. Family in Austin, love indie music; hiking; rollerblading; theatre; museums and art openings; and intimate dinner parties with good friends, wine, conversation & an infusion of laughter- always. My favorite place in the world: a villa built in 1665 in the mountains of Bologna, a beautiful place where my heart was captured- with beautiful music; beautiful friends; and wild deer who take my breath away. Dancing with my two beloved sons, breakfast with friends at the Getty, or beach-side Santa Monica are additional highlights in my life - Ahh, there's nothing like an Italian pizza or a California sunset...I love it all.

My Interests

I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. I want ecstasy. I am a neurotic- in the sense that I live in my world. I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself. -Anias Nin
