Listening to, writing, and looking for music. Art of almost any kind. Painting, drawing, and as of late- mask making. I love the art and music of the Romantic Age along with some Pre-Raphealites. Flemish and Dutch painters like Bosch, Bruegel, Van Eyck, Vermeer, ...Italian Baroque artists like Caravaggio, Reni, and Boromini...Spanish artists like Goya, Velasquez, Rosa, Leal, and German printer Albrecht Durer... Basically I enjoy a lot of surrealist, mysterious, and anything steaped in mysticism, alchemy, demonology, and the occult. I have written a graphic novel that takes place in WWI. Some day I would like to live in France or Spain and have a huge workshop filled with projects of all kinds I can work on- sculptures, drawings, instruments, furniture, masks, clothing. with an old wolf hound at my feet.
