I joined this site because I love seeing other people's artwork. I love seeing how people can take the same thing and come to wildly different conclusions. My favorite crafty styles are vintage type things, but I love artwork inspired by a variety of styles: punk/street/body art, classical painting styles, Asian and Indian artwork, gothic art...pretty much anything with an interesting design will catch my eye. I am always really drawn to images with really strong contrast lighting as well. I go through phases with color. I am currently moving from turquoise to purple and mustard-y yellow. Although I think that any color (even pink, of which I am not a big fan) can look good in the right project or combination of colors. I'm obsessed with plaid, and am currently having a fling with argyle.

Although I have preferences, I don't want to limit anyone in their artistic visions. Please do not go through and change something that you've created based on what I've written! :)

The Giver, Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk, Harry Potter and...., The Lorax, Watchmen, Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris, Much Ado About Nothing, The Great Gatsby.

Buffy, Firefly, Scrubs, How I Met Your Mother, Veronica Mars, Futurama.

Photography, acrylic painting, collage, drawing, puppet making.

I can listen to just about anything. My tastes change quite often, and range from Elvis to Reel Big Fish, Glenn Miller to Rancid, George Thorogood to Brand New. I do admit to indulging in some really bad pop music when it makes me want to dance, kind of like Lady GaGa and Beyone currently, but I tend to stay away from most of the stuff put out on pop stations.
