About Me

I'm not limited to one medium or category. I enjoy sewing, making jewelry, taking photos, creating ATCs, silk screening, etc. - they're all the same to me. The themes that run through them all are the fine details, textures, patterns, unexpected symbols and transformation from old to new.

Some facts about me:

  1. I like the color red.

  2. Cats have a tendency to melt my heart but I can do without cat paraphernalia.

  3. I have enough vintage fabric to wrap around Central Park.

  4. Isabella Rossellini is my muse.

  5. I'm a night owl.

  6. Mint tea calms me.

  7. Favorite cities: NYC & Paris

  8. My style: Marc Jacobs meets Audrey Hepburn in the fall season

  9. Best book I've read: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami

  10. Artists that inspire me: Yayoi Kusama, Isamu Noguchi, Bjork, Sophie Calle, Michel Gondry

  11. I have an allergy to caffeine (please do not send coffee, caffeinated tea & chocolate).

  12. My hometown is Toronto, Canada.

Comment: Thank you for the nice Canadian package. I loved the teas, pc's and the chocolate and of course the canadian zipper pull. So nice to receive things from a foreign country. The toothpick with the beautiful sentences are also great. "Kikker" means frog in dutch language, so it says "Frogcountry"...... I hope it is not a restaurant where you can eat frogs lol :-) Have a great weekend and thanks again for the great swap!
Response: So happy to hear you like the Canadian parcel. Because you collect teas, I thought you might appreciate the toothpicks. Thanks for the rating and enjoy the chocolate!
