About Me

I am a high school art teacher and I love every minute of it. I try to do as much art work as I can, but time gets away from me. I am originally from St. Louis, and I love being in the city. Unfortunately, I currently live in a small rural town in southwest Missouri. Gah! There's cows, cows are weird!

I have (almost) three degrees- a bachelors in Historic Preservation, an associates in Funeral Sciences, and I'm almost done with my Masters in Education. I is edumakated!

By the way, Dias de los Muertos and Halloween, coolest stuff ever!

Favorite Crafts

Mostly I do watercolors and colored pencil pieces. I love to knit and have every intention of teaching myself to crochet. I make lots of little things out of the scrap paper that accumulates in my classroom. I love to make jewelry out of beads and wire and whatever else I can find.

And tattoos. I love tattoos, I have multiple and I design them. I've designed for a number of my friends and students.

Favorite Books

Fiction: Neil Gaiman, Laurell K. Hamilton, J.K. Rowling, Margaret Atwood, Janet Evanovich, Douglas Adams... I read a lot, I could go on and on.

Non-Fiction: COOK BOOKS! I may have a small addiction. I have all the Stitch and Bitch books, including the Happy Hooker. All the Mary Roach books - Stiff, Spook, Bonk. And I recommend Wil Stor vs. the Supernatural, good read.

Collections

I collect a number of strange things:

Stuff out of quarter machines, Cherries, Pineapples, Gargoyles, Dias de los Muertos (Days of the Dead) stuff, Milagros, Death icons (mostly skulls), Folklore and Superstitions, Catholic Saint ephemera (specifically George, Anthony, Jude, and Catherine of Bologna)

Comment: Lovely card! Jayne at his silliest. And the back of your card is almost as nice as the front! Too bad your adorable little envelope wouldn't send, it'd be cool to be able to send things like that. I never would've thought to try!
Response: I'm so glad you liked it. Jayne is my favorite! I made the tiny envelope before I checked minimum measurements. So sad. All those tiney envelopes I could be making. :(
