Art! Mainly in creating my own, though am currently seeking inspiration and getting nowhere fast! The piece below is my favourite and is called "Lady". She is an exploration of beauty, feminism and the nature of body art...shes a piece of A-Level art and needs some tweaking but this is how she is until I find some time to improve her...she now lives on my living room wall...

I am currently reading...
I have recently read the following...
I love books :) some people just don't get them...or bother reading any...but I love them!! I actually feel quite sorry for people who don't read...I don't think they quite know what they're missing, but then a footballer might say the same thing to me of their passion... My favourite book ever (so far) is "The Time Traveller's Wife" by Audrey Niffeninger as it was so beautiful and managed time travel without any sci-fi bollocks (quite an achievement, I think). I haven't read any classics, maybe I will one day but I once read a comment, a quote by someone, that classics are to be talked about and not read. Interestingly true, I thought. Hmm also recently read "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire, a fabrication of the life of the witches of Oz before the tale of "The Wizard of Oz" came along- that was a challenging read, but really interesting philosophically and psychologically which was just fab :) Also recently read was "JPod" by Douglas Coupland, a nice light-hearted piss-take of today's 'google' based society. Randomly cool :) I've just finished Memoirs of a Geisha which is a great contender for my favourite book ever, I adored it and could eat it all up :) so full of beautiful imagery...Just finished "The Brief History of the Dead" which was strange and different and about the apparent futility of life but how much impact we truly have on each other without realising it...I'm now reading Middlemarch as it was a gift from my wonderful English teachers and I want to see how good it really is...
