Graduated from Massachusetts College of Art in 1996 with a B.F.A. (with honors) in Painting/2D Fine Art. Love to paint, draw, knit, make books, dolls, jewelry. Love vintage anything.

I have a really broad range of interests & am open to new things...Some music I love: Talking Heads, Mozart, Tuvan throat singers, Joni Mitchell, Peter Gabriel, Etta James, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holliday, soul, zydeco, early jazz, Rolling Stones, Santana, Traditional Irish music, Daniel Johnson, Tube, opera, some musicals, everything on "O Brother, Where art thou?", Aimee Mann, Gregorian chanting, Stevie Wonder, Leona Lewis, Al Green, Ink Spots...I'm very curious about music from other cultures, especially ones I'm not too familiar with like Indian, Middle Eastern, African, French, really anything done well.
