My main interests right now are: Acting; I am always involving myself in productions locally and internationally. I am taking acting courses to tune my abilities and meet other actors. Modeling; I've been modleing for 4 years, and have done some great work and met some amazing photographers and models. As much as I love modeling I am moving more into the acting field and replacing myself with other models instead. Singing and Writing; I have loved singing since I was a little girl, I have been putting myself in contests and classes as well and more recently working with a producer to record a CD of my own songs and poetry to music. Photography; After spending so much time infront of the lens, my interests have moved to being on the other side of it too. I have started to shoot my own models, work currently in the medical photography field p/t. I am also a photographer's assistant for commercial assignments. The Outdoors; There nothing like being in the middle of nature where all you can hear is the peaseful wind blowing through the trees and the sound of your own breath. Growing up in the country, I have learned to love nature and need it in my life. I love hiking in the mountains of Mont Tremblant, swimming in lakes and laying in fields of grass. I live in the city now, but every few weeks I need to get away to a place where I feel like I can relax and unwind.
I'd like to meet other people who are interested in the arts. Interested in meeting photographers, other models and actors in my area who would be interested in networking and sharing information and stories. Always looking for great make-up artists to refer to photographers and models for commercial and portfolio work.My personality is very easy going, fun and caring of others. I love making people laugh and being around light hearted people.
I looooove Jazz music. Experiencing it being played live is the best time I can think of.Van Morrison's 'moon dance' is my favourite song of all time. I love the sound of Diana Krall's voice and music Michael Buble has some cool modern sounding songs.I also like Sarah Mc Laughlin. She is a true artist who writes her own songs, plays her own instruments. her lyrics are like poetry and speak to me in a personal way.Jewl was a favourite of mine when I was 14, I still like to listen to her every once and a while.I like some of Elton John's earlier songs like 'tiny dancer' and 'my gift is my song'I love watching Ian Halperin play sax. There's something about a musician who's pationate about his music that is very appealing.
Not really books, but writing. Here is a poem I wrote that Im currently working on putting to music. Ill upload it here when it's finishedDarkness and Light Ella-Rose Novemeber 2005Swimming in a Sea of Blackness I swim towards the light Hold my breath, open my eyes. Standing underneath Street Light. There is no town around me Just darkness and this Light what is it that has found me? Why me? Why this tonight?Standing in a busy train station I hear its lonely horn Whistle out whats this about? Im standing all alone.My footsteps walking backwards Rewind until a time When this made sense all this past tense. Was it ever really mine?An empty swing still Swinging Someone turns out the light The sun now sets so quickly Ever to regain sight?An old farm house the longing to stay a window open I flight out. My wings begin to fail me Desperation someone shouts.An old farm house the feeling to stay but in the end I fly awaySwiming in a sea of blackness I swim towards the light.Hold my Breath Open My eyes...
