About Me:
Most of all I'm an artist. I work with lots of different mediums. im interested in texture in my paintings which are somewhat abstract and usually include found items. I also make sculptures with found items and cigar boxes.
I have a facination with the 1950's housewife. I collect aprons, and im working on a sleeve dedicated to the feminine mystique. So far on my left arm, Im sportin' a toaster, a sewing machine, and a mixer, all in vintage '50's style. I plan on adding a chocolate cake on a cake-stand soon, as well as a few other things. my background will be an old wall-paper pattern! it's gonna be awesome!
Oh yeah, and i write too.
