    JonathanEike.com's Interests
GeneralArt, history, photography, science, pestering certain individuals with questions, pop culture... lots-o-stuff!
MusicOh geez, there are too many to list. I like a wide range of sounds. Music by the Beatles were among the first music I heard as a child and have since spent much time over the years studying them and their music. Rock, blues, jazz, swing, classical, even country (I'm talking about the real stuff, not the crap that's out today). Really anything with a good beat and has some kind of soul. I can't remember the last time I listened to modern radio. I'm currently 'rediscovering' some real jems of years past.
MoviesThere are too many to list. I like a lot of the films from the '30s and '40s (I have an interest in that period, dontcha know). I like a sci-fi, and other genres, though I'm not that big on action flicks (I like a few, but for the most part, they're dumb), and not all that wild about slasher/horror films. That's me.
TelevisionTelevision? Don't really have time for TV these days. When I do, it's usually something on TCM, the History Channel, or the Weather Channel. I must admit I'm something of a NASA junkie, so whenever there is a shuttle mission or any kind of significant NASA activity, you can bet that I have NASA TV on.
BooksNon-fiction. Give me a history book or something on the space program and I'm a happy camper.

And then check out my personal website www.jonathaneike.com:


I'm an artist living and working in the beautiful state of Iowa.

It's not always easy being an artist here, but I love this state so much, I'll make the extra effort to make it work. In addition to the arts, I love history and science. I have been involved in WWII living history for a few years. It can be a pretty good tool for making the subject less abstract. I grew up with the space shuttle program and can be quite the NASA junkie from time to time. I'm really into a lot of other things as well, but these are the biggies. As an artist I am rooted in illustration, drafting and fine arts. I moonlight as a graphic designer and the occasional IT/web guy. I recently took the plunge to learn 3D rendering software. I don't mind it, but I still prefer to work with a pencil or brush.

You can learn more about me at either one of the websites linked above. But if that's not enough for you, feel free to ask.

Thanks for stopping by.
Who I'd like to meet:
Um.. people. Specifically people that are 1. real, 2. not trying to sell me insurance, 3. not trying sell me useless crap, 4. sell me anything- period, 5. not trying 'hook me up' with that hottie if I only click on link and so on and so forth.

What's up, JE? Hope you've been well--I kind of dropped off the planet for a while. Hey, I'm gonna be in DSM for a very brief period of time here next week if you're around.
If you're there, maybe we could get some Perkins?
