Scrapegrace

I'm an art major, I like making masks and modifying things like glasses and hats. I love to read and write. I love music, infact I was once in band. I play trumpet and guitar, and I was in choir for six years. I still love to sing. I live in California, but I'm not a fan of the beach, too much sand :P. My boyfriend and I attend a community college (our mascot is the coyote). I plan to transfer to UCLA or another california university. I have two golden retrievers, Dexter and Ruben. We just lost our third one Tanner to cancer :(. My Brother is a Marine, currently deployed in Korea. My favorite food is fried chicken :) I like vampires, zombies, werewolves, cyborgs, elves, stuff like that, and Dragons! I love dragons....and wolves! :)

My Call sign here is Scrapegrace, an old term for a scoundrel, rascal, or mischievous person. I chose it because my nickname offline is DG, or Doppelganger. I would Love love LOVE anything made on the theme of Scrapegrace or Doppelganger. A Doppelganger is a myth of a personal ghost, an "evil twin", if you will. :) However, know that I do not believe in ghosts. lol. I am a christian, but don't be hesitant to send me anything unless its in my "do not like" section below.

Anything old. I love Shakespeare. The Scarlet Pimpernel. Kurt Vonegut. Clockwork Orange. The Scarlet Letter. The Giving Tree. Ender's Game. Empire by Orson Scott Card. Harry Potter :)

I love all types of music, from classical to punk. My favorites at the moment are Owl City, The Eagles, Iron and Wine, Flogging Molly, and The Pogues. Anything Rock and Roll is sweet, ecspecially classic rock

As a list: Boondock Saints, Gangs of New York, Fight Club, Shakespeare in Love, Black Snake Moan, Hotrod, White Christmas.

House, Bones, Heroes, NCIS, Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Anything and everything :3 Mostly I draw, but I've done everything from collages to making giant bugs out of sheet metal. I love to work with wire and metal. I'm always looking for mechanical parts, like gears, cogs, computer chips. And clamps. Clamps are great tools, any size. I can use anything, and often do. I tend to be a MacGyver with my art projects. So junk is welcome :) I can always use more brads, broken glasses(or whole ones, prefferably old), little bits of decoration, buttons, thimbles, old jewelry, anything that can be glued.
