About Me

I am a printmaker, draw-er, painter, bookmaker, & sometimes knitter.

i like all kinds of animals.

i make art and teach art.

i believe you can make just about anything out of paper.

i like plants and have made a couple of terrariums in hopes of keeping ferns alive in the house!

i'm crazy for almost any kind of out of the ordinary or over looked printed matter: posters, decorative paper, maps, mysterious diagrams, textbook illustrations, instructional illustrations, comic books, vintage advertising, food packaging, foreign packaging, fruit stickers & "inspected by" tags. the weirder the better.

helvetica is my favorite typeface.

i have official collections of pencils, paper clips, rulers, cameras, tins, and wonderhorses (but i only have 3 of those).

i like pinhole photography & other low tech cameras.

i like mid-century modern & vintage utilitarian furnishings. most of my furniture is wood & rectangular, or it's a metal cabinet.

i like any color, although purple is not my favorite & i don't care for "jewel tones"

i'm not very "girly". i can't stand anything scented . i don't usually like ornate crafty things like beaded things, or wirework, or overly embellished anything. i don't really wear jewelry. i don't wear makeup or perfume. i don't like glitter except in very specific situations (like when i cover fake birds with it :) )

Favorite Television

lately i have been watching "arrested development", "the office" (british), and "the muppet show". we don't watch tv actual tv anymore, after 3 years i still miss ''adult swim" and "the daily show". sigh jon stewart is so dreamy, dontcha think?

Favorite Books

I can't remember the last time i "read a book". most of what i read is instructional or informational. a few months ago i read one short story out of a herman hesse book my bf got for me.

favorite busywork

drawing, printmaking, painting, card making, book making, christmas decorations, making stuff out of paper, making or modifying cameras, flamework glass beads - animals & monsters, playing with my cats, & sewing - but i don't do much of it.

favorite artists

yoshitomo nara, julie mehertu, steven weisman, susan rothenberg, richard serra, jenny saville, paula hays, andrew wyeth, wes anderson, hayao miyazaki
