I'm an aging hippie whose heart still cries - Give Peace a Chance! I've been an artist my whole life and I am paying the bills by living my calling to ministry - specificly, as a hospice Chaplain and grief counselor. Loss, death, transformation, re-birth...all common themes in my life and my art. Someday I hope to pay the bills through art, but for now it is my therapy and passion. One great spouse, 2 wonderful adult (22, 19) kids, 2 crazy cats.

60's and 70's R&R (how did my music become "oldies"???)...Carly Simon, Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond, Billy Joel, The Beatles, Eagles. Newest favorite addictive CD: Rosanne Cash - "Black Cadillac" (all about life and death and the grief that follows...I know, I know, but that IS what I do for a living!)

The Wizard of Oz, Defending Your Life, Multiplicity, Heart and Soul, It's a Wonderful Life, The Owl and the Pussycat, Titanic, The Birdcage

hmmm...don't watch much TV, but I do enjoy Deadwood and Family Guy.

Anything in the area of altered art and/or assemblage art, but I'll try anything once. My line of fashion jewelry was carried in the Chicago Nordstrom stores from 1993-96.
