About Me

i have a good sense of direction - which is unfortunate, because i like getting lost - - singing, remonstrating, and tripping over curiosities along the way. i have a strange obsession with unfinished paintings - that whole what is what it could be is it supposed to be will it ever be what if what if what if rough asks to be touched unrealization opportunity lost/open factor. i want to be a birch tree. i love finding myself in the physics of others' hearts - understanding how they touch, balance, move, float, learn. the pictures of manipulated land, resanctioned buildings and a spectacular upside-down tree are from my favorite art park - in pedvale, latvia. go there.
