I like to feel alive, so if that means wandering around aimlessly in a place I've never been to before, then so be it. Things that keep me alive: painting, music (tribal beats and trance, 80s pop and synthpop, rough noises, some industrial, abstract techno, heavy beats, drum/bass, classic orchestral/jazz, electronic/ebm, ambient, etc...), illustrating/drawing, random tangents, time with jason, playing my old player piano and watching the keys move inside, traveling to strange places (even if it's only 5 minutes away), listening, people watching (no, I'm not a peeping-tom), interior design/murals, networking with clients, creating anything (music and images are on the tippy-top of that list)
I love unique tattoos and skin art - on other people
I love tag art - from other artists
I love creepy places - other than my basement
I love honest representation - like my 3 year old niece's fingerpaintings
I love emotional music - from emotional people
I love dim/red lighting - especially when creating
