About Me

i am nice. i love making art.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

the whole world

Music:

Open to anything... mostly. I really love live music. Pretty much a sucker for your local musicians:) I like the EELS, Tom Waits, Nora Jones, I luv to dance and like techno. The genres I like are vast.

Movies:

Amalie, Happenstance, Born Into Brothels

Television:

I haven't had tv for atleast four years.... so I watch a lot of dvds. Netflix baby. At friends, however, Tourgasm, Project Runway is cool! (if your friends have divo and your life doesn't have to revolve around it and you can fastforward thru drama and commercials) Sapranos, Sex in the City, Family Guy, 70's Show.

Books:

I usually have a hard time sitting still long enough to get through a lot of books lately, although I've always loved reading. My most recent fav was "Blindness"... and my scattered brain won't puke out the author so if you don't know.... google it. Celestine Profecy and all of HIS books are good. EVERYONE should read those. I enjoy my subscriptions to Art News, Art in America, Rolling Stone and Vogue.

Heroes:

Frieda Kahlo & Alice Neel & all the strong women i'v met along the way and will come to meet & starving artists everywhere. & people who never give up :). & mile, the newsie i met in boston in 2003 who never missed a day of work... in the biggest snow storms boston had ever seen... who was nice to everyone... and was so happy to let me take his portrait...and tell me his story.
