Music
Whatever my teenagers are into at the time (I mean nine inch nails, come on but I love it). Also, of course things that would embarrass them like the Dixie Chicks. I love the Bare Naked Ladies too. My music life consists of whatever I load onto my mp3 player and wear while I cook and clean. :(
Movies
Matrix, Harry Potter, Blades of Glory, Talledega Nights, Juno was brilliant. Hard to find good films lately. Are we really defined by what we consume? These questions give us that impression...
Television
House, Bones, American Idol, HGTV, TLC - not much these days.
Books
Mostly manga recently. I am a Naruto freak. My kids tease me constantly. Ninjas and cool artwork - who wouldn't love that!?
Heroes
My Grandparents, parents, uncle, brother, and husband.
About me: I have been painting for 13 years. The common thread in my work is a strong attention to and affection for composition and expressive drawing and color. I find large shapes arranged into exciting compositions, personal line
work, and deep, rich color and texture visually stimulating.

This print stirred/moved me in so many directions. I couldn't tell if I was mad at the art work, or if I understood it completely. As for me, living in the United States is suppose to be an honor, but I am at the age, where I have seen so many many many horrific mistakes, starvation, crime and more with our government. I am simply curious....how does this print/art affect you? Simply curious....love, jackie p.s. I realize some of you all do NOT like to talk about politics, but my question does not necessarily have to be a political answer.
