Twenty year old starving artist residing in Maryland. I live with my fiance & we are expecting our first child towards the end of August. Residing in our home with us are our two dogs (Larry & Salvador,) our kitten (Boris) & my lizard (Icarus.) I enjoy the companionship of animals more than people, though I am always willing to socialize & people watch. I love to learn & expand in many different ways. My favorite crafts are a variety of paper crafts along with altering books & making bizarre scrap books full of strange clippings and old photographs. I think of my body & life as a canvas. I try to revel in contentment each day.

music, literature, films, self expression through art, astronomy, topiary gardens, smells, burlesque performers, zoology/osteology/anatomy/botony/entomology, book shops, ghostie stories, tea, gardening, taxidermy, adventures & exploration, finger painting, people watching.

Blues, psychobilly, rockabilly, jazz, alt. pop, 1940's/50's country, motown, big band, doo-wop, anything & everything.
