About Me

Self-taught artist.
Vegan, but not obnoxious and overbearing about it.
Avid thrift store shopper.
Bit of an eco-geek.
Probably a bit more Indie than Punk.

Stuff I like:
art, artisanship, college radio, counter-culture, linguistics, mythology & folklore, traveling, silent films, short films, foreign films, animation, traditional Japanese art/textiles, folding bikes, sewing/knitting/crotchet, guerilla gardening, community gardens, Harlem Renaissance, reading, NPR, political/propaganda art, volunteering

You can be my friend if...

you are creative, reasonably intelligent, rebel/non-conformist, and (most important) a decent person on the whole. :)
