Influences: My favoirte singer/songwriter is John Lennon. Every time I listen to his work, I always hear something new that makes me grow. I am obsessed with Beck, his creative layers of music, and his ability to interlace cultures and sounds to appeal to a diverse background of people. Sting has always done something to me. His lyrical content keeps me pleased, and his sexy voice makes me want to kiss and drink red wine. I also look up to Annie Lennox tremendously. Chagall and Matisse inspire me more than words can say, and nature always takes me to another level. An artist friend of mine said after sketching a single tree every day for six weeks, he finally understood Emily Dickensen's word "overtakedness." That inspires me.
