Classic rock, oldies, some classical, Russian composers- Rimsky Korsakov, Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky. Doors, The Fray, Smashmouth, etc.

"The Pope and the Ceiling", biographies, historical based fiction, "coffee table" art books about pre-Raphaelite artists, about Mucha, history/life in the medieval era.

Shawshank Redemption, Devil's Advocate, Kingdom of Heaven. Like Al Pacino, Robt DeNiro, Morgan Freeman, Sam Jackson, Tyler Perry.

One and only one "soap opera". British detective series, things on History channel & "Flipping Out", "Law and Order".

Just about anything paper related. Got burned out on scrapbooking, tho. Not into making "greeting" cards, either.

Don't like nudes, anything even suggesting animal abuse or "Satan". "Wicca"/alchemy/magic is fine and fun.

Least favorite colors are blue, yellow.

Like to go on vacation and take away one element- the sun glinting off a window I saw or the lush purple I saw in a painting, and incorporate that into a piece of personal art for myself.

Want to do some black & white photography and then accent it with paint...

Addictions: 12 x 12, 8.5 x 11, or 6 x 6 papers in pink, purple, red &/or gold.

Love "script"/"text" backgrounds, pre-Raphaelite art., old maps, architecture, things about Roman history- Pompeii, port of Ostia, etc.

"ancient looking" map papers, "Basic Grey" papers, images of tropical birds, journaling, Russian art/iconography, art of/from Florence, Italy, history of Venice, Italy, art by Mucha, pre-Raphaelite artists (Dante Rossetti and Waterhouse are all time faves... Also intrigued by architecture/history of Prague. Definitely a "destination". Addicted to all things DaVinci-
