About Me

Born in .... Cold Lake... *Alberta.... AND NO I"M NOT A REDNECK. I don't have stupid plastic things and dead appliances on my lawn. And I dislike suvs. :P

Moved to a not-*quite*-as-boring-as-some suburb in Ottawa when I was 7 months old. I haven't moved since, except to move to Kingston for school.

And now... here I am... in Fine Arts at Queen's.

My Interests

Art. Mainly. Doing it, thinking about it, writing about it (though not as much), reading about it, looking at it...

But not eating it. That wouldn't be very good. Apparently Van Gogh kept slopping paint in his food, and look where his ear ended up...

The rest I'm going to copy-pasta from my intro post.. Sorry but I'm tired and sick at the moment and don't really feel like typing it all out again...

As for clothes, I like velvet, satin, lace... a random pair of red leopard-print cat ears... pvc/vinyl is currently being more appealing to me than it used to...

I'll make a brief summary of my art tastes (You don't have to read this if you don't like. Trust me, I could go - and have gone - on for hours). My favourite are the High Renaissance and Pre-Raphaelites, but I also like almost any general movement between the two. I like Baroque and some neo-classical art too. I admire Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema's general painting abilities, though especially his renderings of marble, and I've seen a REAL LIVE PAINTING OF HIS *squeel* as well as a real live Rosetti, Waterhouse, Burne-Jones, and some others. Bellini is one of my favourite artists (and drinks :P), as is Correggio, Edmund Blair Leighton, and others... And Bernini is my sculpture God.
