Bio






Look what [info]sarubaby made for me!



I'm in my forties and a new empty-nester, so I am re-discovering life after The Child!

I love anime and manga, especially Saiyuki, Kuroshitsuji and Trinity Blood. I have just started writing Saiyuki fanfiction (my OTP is Sanzo/Goku, but I write other pairings as well), and have some fanart in the works. A couple of friends and I have started going to anime conventions, and are *contemplating* going in costume. (I reeeally want to make Sanzo's bamboo armor! I know I can!)

Artistically, I paint still lifes and some portraits in oils, and I also do graphic design work like logos and ads. I make jewelry as well, and I like to use unusual stones or unusual materials for my pieces.

I am a huge fan of the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, and am trying to visit every public building and home that is available for touring. I can usually get to at least one or two per year. I am also a big fan of Antonio Gaudi (need to go to Spain for him!) and have recently discovered Mies van der Rohe. To me, great architecture is another form of great art, just with concrete, wood and steel instead of paint and canvas.

I am *almost* a beer snob. I looove a good Belgian - the Deliriums, Maredsou (#8!) and Chimay, but am also enjoying many of the eccentric American microbrews that have been cropping up. Friends don't let friends drink Bud! Or Coors. Or Miller.
