I am an artist, zinester, house builder, thing finder, performer, debaucheror and general free lance enthusiast. i am a urban homesteader and spend half my year on secret exploring missions
i can usually be talked in to any interesting project. if you can supply either fist fulls of monies or at least room and board then maybe i'll actually get it finnished by some kind of deadline. if not i'll probably commit sort of kind of for a bit eventually.

BUYING ILLUSTRATIONS FROM MEWhen i was younger i thought i'd become a graphic designer eventually. a year of graphic design school taught me i'd rathe rjust sit in a coffee shop and draw whatever i feel like all day. i also briefly had a fine art career in about '95-'98. but i wasn't satisfied with the paintings i was doing, and it was hell trying to store 150 canvases in my tiny appartment, so i temporarilly quit painting about 10 years ago. if you know any galleries or artist reps that want to show mechanical pencil on scrap paper illustrations then please give me there contact info.
people ask me if i sell illustrations. sort of, i ask for a donation of $10-$20 a page and i usually throw in some extras for anyone who wants to give them a good home. i've traded and given people presents often enough. i have plans to start making patches this year but i havent started yet. i dont have any of my old print zines or even the templates to themn anymore.. but i'm working on a few print zine projects. i am a complete basket case about mailorder cuz i have no bank account and no reliable fixed address. i collect my mail from 1415 franklin ave, new orleans LA,70117 every few months if you'd like to write me a nasty letter. people also ask me about commissions alot. i'll draw you anything you want for $20. and i'll allow a few revisions and approvals. people also ask me if they can use my images for flyers or posters or silkscreens or whatever. yes, sure, go for it !!! please tell me you did if you do tho. and send me a copy of what you dided.

Performance
|
|
i was a member of a loveable bad performance art troup, the KittenLing foundation, for a buch of years. we promoted and organised shows and built giant crappy monster costumes and attempted to be a sub realist satirical anti performance art performance art troup. a few years ago i had a neat on going gig as a shock go go dancer for a goth band and some drag queen thing. i've appeared (extra-ed) in a couple of shitty indy films usually getting type cast as the loud drunk crazy lady. i did 2 years of traditional animation schooland drew a 3 minute short about a chiken who rides a tricycle. i was never filmed.
theese days i do THE LOST LITTLE GIRL SHOW which is me telling short attention span-poor grasp of reality little kid stories about my puppet friends. i also play junk rock punk in between my puppet sets. i am a really horrible guitar player and try to make up for it by yelling the songs really loud and punching myself and others. i build instruments and make puppets an dresses for myself to hang out with.
theres plans to produce soem digital video shorts of my puppet show peices and some plays about having fun and playing games. i've done shows at ida tennessee and performed with the pirates from the miss rockaway armada.

Activism :)
|
|
I have really hardly any interest in being a good person. but I HEART activists. i worked for 4 months cleaning up the hurricane katrina disaster. i'm really burnt out over that. i'm mostly interested in hands on imediate results shit, like serving food and fixing houses. i am a huge beliver in folk anarchy in practice. by that i mean "lets travel and squat and build houses and put on shows were we sing and be silly and drink and flirt and laugh" i'm taking a peer coucilling class right now. i once rewired a womans shelter. theres a very special place in my heart for queers, punks, and kids who are to magical to hold down jobs. i try to do peer support and build communitee amongst theese groups. mostly i try to do this by making lots of friends and spending time with them. i useed to be a vegan but i quit after 6 years. cuz i like cheese.

Bio
|
|
i will eat anything. i'm a light sleeper but a dreaming enthusiest. i can bullshit for hours on a wide variety of topics. i'm easy to talk in to doing projects. i'm a cynical jaded hater but i'm silly and happy. i'm super flirty and tactile but its kind of overshadowed by how im kinna awkward and crude. the only thing i value more than being arround people and friends is my meditative loner solitude. i'm a talented substance abuser unless i have to focus on somthing iportant or spend time with my substanceless friends. i try to be lazy and dodge responsibility cuz i have a compulsive workaholic problem. i'm strong and healthy inspite of not doing a single damned thing to get that way. i'm very easy to get along with cuz i'm way to diplomatic and empathetic. my main strategy for conflict resolution is either imediatly giving in or up, or i just do what i want to and ignore you. i like my bike and i'll walk 5 miles just cuz i'm too cheap to take the bus. i've seen alot of fucked up shit in my life which has made me stong patient confident, jadedly optomistic, and cautiously fearless. i like cuddling with friends. i'm not a very good fighter but i'll brawl with you just for the fuck of it.

Artist's Statement
|
i have no idea what your talking about drawing and other creative activities are a way of communicating dreams and ideas. It is the act of modeling images from the subconcious to try to demonstrate them to ourselves and others.
1. i draw what i see (remember).
2. every creative thing i do is meant to be taken absolutly literally.
3. i am a grown adult woman and i never learned to spell.
