She changes everything She touches, and everything She touches changes ~so mote it be!~

About Me

I'm an FX makeup artist (see the slide show above), trained as an abstract painter (scroll down for the other slide show), and an avid writer... but most of all, I'm a firm believer that one is NOT one's work, so what else can I tell you? Ummm... I'm a sexy, plump hobbit, I'm politically to the left, a pet lover - actually all around animal lover (but a chicken eater - don't start with me, I'm a recovering vegetarian from childhood), a rain lover, a disliker of the haters and a liker of the lovers, a makeup wearer, a horror movie screamer, a (bad habit) smoker, a moderate psychic, a spiritualist, a hair dyer, a man lover AND a true member of the Sisterhood, a wearer of black things, a late stayer upper, a misogyny pisser on-er, an incense burner, a Fox News hater, a Samuel L. Jackson lover (I'm a mushroom cloud layin muthafucca, muthafucca), a holiday cookie baker (love any excuse to celebrate something), a curser, a talker and a listener, a believer that babies are cute when they're not mine and they're well behaved, a bad speller- Misspellars UNTIE!, a big boob haver (and a belly too), an avid reader, a fair AND a foul weather friend, a coffee and tea drinker, a Cosmo hater, a fake nail disliker, a Bush despiser, a tattoo digger, a red wine liker, an elderly or pregnant seat giver upper, an artist, a writer, a Black soul sister with a Jewish mother streak, a good but rather saucy wife, a drama avoider, a collector of devil woman iconography, a James Brown and Bjork lover, a love hate relationshipper with things of a girlie nature (while a clear disliker of the prissy), a spell caster, a good friend, sister, daughter, and not a morning person.

My Interests

Art, modern museums (of art) film (especially scary ones... especially CLASSIC scary ones), special effects, writing, spellcasting, all things Rock and Roll, avoiding exercise, glitter, tattoo and all forms of body adornment/modification, Halloween, fighting for the underdog, the shifting sociopolitical landscape and the inequities therein (and not avoiding it for the sake of polite dinner conversation), rockin' rollin' wheelchair users (and Disabled rights), furry creatures, staying up way past bedtime, period panties, Christmas trees, sexy left wingers, rocking out at concerts... music in general, festivals of any kind and many other unmentionables.

I'd like to meet:

You! On this grand journey I'd like to meet buddies, pals, networking contacts, cohorts, co-conspirators, and comrades. Film people, hit me up - I wanna work with you, and rock with the crew! Know what I mean, jelly bean? If you do, hit me up with a friend request, then leave me a message in the leeetle box below.

Music:

Everything... well not everything. Just the good stuff. Nina Simone, Duke Ellington, Big Brother and the Holding Company (Janis!), old school Bowie, Hendrix, The Doors, James Brown, Creedence, Pasty Cline, John Coltrane, Johnny Cash, Bob Marley, Screaming Jay Hawkins, old school Stevie Wonder, Divo, B-52s, Wall of Voodoo, Morrissey, The Smiths, New Order, Depeche Mode, The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Specials, The Clash, Blondie, Yaz, Journey, Fleetwood Mac -Stevie Nicks, The Pretenders, Heart, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Enya, Annie Lennox, A Tribe Called Quest, JBs, Beastie Boys, DeLa, KRS 1, DaftPunk, Basement Jaxx, MstrKrft, The White Stripes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Foo Fighters, Rumer, Bjork, POD, Wolfmother, Chris Cornell (and Soundgarden of course), Nirvana, Bloc Party, Lenny Kravitz, Radiohead, Wycleffff, Gossip, Muse, Amy Winehouse, and the amazing and beautiful neo-soul Goddess JILL SCOTT. Generally I LOVE a cornucopia of rock, classic rock, alternative rock, psychobilly, big band, funk, classical, house, trance, (some)techno and whatever interesting sounds I can get my hands on. I'm pretty much a music lover and love ecclectic stuff of all sorts. I'm not big on American Top 40 type stuff.

Movies:

Ohhhh sooo many.... Donnie Darko, Drugstore Cowboys, City of God, Dead Man, V for Vendetta- really everything by the Wachowski Brothers, Barton Fink, Disturbing Behavior, Boogie Nights, Punch Drunk Love and anything else P.T. Anderson, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, Easy Rider, Glory, The Handmaiden's Tale, Orlando, Ravenous, Brazil, Repo Man, Amistad (Speilberg's masterpiece), Schindler's List (his other masterpiece), Marie Antoinette, Haute Tension, The Neighbor in No. 13, Jeepers Creepers, River's Edge,Vampire's Kiss, Romeo + Juliet, Strictly Dancing- Anything Baz, anything Danny Boyle, especially 28 Days Later, anything M Night, anything QT (especially Kill Bill), early John Carpenter, Eli Roth, anything Tim Burton (excluding James and the Giant Peach), Rob Zombie films, ALL Scorsese, certain Spike Lee films (like Crooklyn and Malcolm X), just about anything done by the Scott brothers, Kubrick, anything done by Morgan and Wong. I'm a horror and sci-fi fanatic basically - I especially like Asian horror. But I like a myriad of interesting films. Romantic comedies make me physically ILL. With the exception of the 80's teen genre flicks like Say Anything and Pretty in Pink, Rom Coms are evil and they must be stopped. Other than that, I really love film to the ends of the earth, people.

Television:

Medium, Battlestar Galactica (best show on TV), Supernatural, Nip/Tuck, Sleeper Cell, Lost, Torchwood, Dr. Who, The L Word, Peepshow, Skins, Shameless.The classics like Millennium, X-Files, G vs E, Space: Above and Beyond, Buffy, Angel - basically anything Joss Wheddon or Chris Carter or Morgan and Wong, also SPACED.

Books:

I'm generally hot for fiction. A Fine Balance, She's Come Undone, The Dark Tower series - and anything that Stephen King has ever written, The Bell Jar, 1984, The Bluest Eye, Shardik, The Lovely Bones, Wicked, Native Son, Slaughterhouse Five, The anything by bell hooks (though non fic), The Lady and the Unicorn, Girl With the Pearl Earring, The Prophet, Fahrenheit 451, The Hobbit, Memoirs of a Geisha, Cane, Year of Wonders: a Novel of the Plague (my favorite)...

Heroes:

bell hooks, Frida Kahlo, Cornel West, Jill Scott, my sister, Malcolm X, Tituba the Black Witch of Salem, all the Maroons who ever fled bondage, every Jew who fought in the Resistance, Women Artists, and Mothers. Mothers rock.
