About Me

I'm a drawing, painting, ceramicist, writer, who likes taking photos, getting out in the natural world, enjoying listening to music as well as looking at and creating works of art. Sometimes I sing, sometimes I play the djembe, and sometimes I get out the bass and have a bit of a play too!
But art is really my thing these days!
Your Scent is Key Lime
Sassy, real, and totally smooth
You're a total flirt who's always ready for a challenge! What Scent Are You?
You Belong in London
A little old fashioned, and a little modern.
A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.
A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.
No wonder you and London will get along so well. What City Do You Belong In?
MyGen Profile Generator The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for.
And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance,
but live right in it, under its roof.
~Barbara Kingsolver~

Hmmmmmmm..................Any musician or artist who stands by their individuality without being dogmatic or imposing...I hate dogma.
And for that matter any spiritual leader who has a grander message of love such as the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa
Not peole who have conditional rules to love and being loved or who want to put me in their own typecast, projected little box.
Brave people who fearlessly unravel the mystery of self through interaction with others and by facing their own fears and inner demons honestly and openly........... People who dare to love regardless...........
