I am a mother and an artist. I love shabby styles and graffiti, too. i am very varied in my interests. from kawaii cute, to science fiction... just about anything will make me smile. i am also a scrapbook nut. :)

lo-fi, downtempo, electronica... indie. anything with feeling. massive attack, gorillaz, metric, tori amos, etc...

art books! how-to books. altered art, embellishments. paper techniques... anything having to do with art usually.
