Welcome to the official Myspace page of whimsical artist Paulina Cassidy.
Good morning and good evening! Very happy that you stopped by my page for a visit.
Greetings from Chattanooga in the scenic Tennessee Valley, surrounded by water and blue mountains. I used to live in the New Orleans area, the place which will always be the Keeper of Our Hearts. Before New Orleans, I resided all my life in my native land of Ontario, Canada. Though currently in the south, I remain a northern girl; I love the change of seasons and cooler temperatures. However, the south holds a warm & mysterious essence that I love more and more every day.
As you may have guessed, my art takes a lot of my time & energy in its creation. When I focus on my work I can rarely be dragged off. So keep an eye on this space for new productions! I'm constantly dreaming up, devising and concocting something, so you're bound to discover a spicy taste of arcane brews. One of the most common questions asked of me is whether I will collaborate on a book project: unfortunately the answer is 'no' 99.9% of the time. There are the very lucrative exceptions, mind you, but most every project of that nature is undertaken with contracts and publishers already aligned. I rarely work off speculation alone, and projects are filtered through my manager/husband Kevin before making the final decision on those he recommends.
Visit my RESTLESS MOON GALLERY website at www.paulina.ws for original art, prints, books and other unique gift & collectible items. You'll also discover a medley of items in theART OF PAULINA EBAY SHOP.
Recently completed project: The PAULINA TAROT deck, now available!
Thanks for stopping by my space, and I hope you continue to watch for my upcoming creations!

"Keep steadily before you the fact that all true success depends at last upon yourself." ~ Theodore T. Hunger
Forgive me for taking so much time between comments but life on the cold damp streets of San Francisco has kept me busier then normal. I've been juggling time between my new job at Louis Vuitton and the Moog biography. I recently returned to the City of Angels and somewhere between a gallery exhibit and a photo shoot at the Comedy Store I once again found my thoughts on you and your Family. Isn't it always when we are most happy that we miss the people that aren't there to share in the moment... Tiny smiles rest on my mind whenever you come across it.
Always, "D" aka J. Kerouac
P.S. See the new photos I recently posted for a glimpse into those moments.
♪ H ♫ E ♫ L ♪ L ♫ O ♪ Hope all is well Great page here:) Sometimes we need just a little Sunshine in our lives. That is why I am wishing, on each and every calendar day, for smiles and sunshine to come your way! Thanks for the add Peace and love J.
With Halloween fast approaching I felt the need to reach out and tell you how much I miss seeing your smiling face. I begin work on the Bob Moog biography this month which should be interesting to say the least. Is Morty still looking Exceptional as always??? I wish you and (your) Kevin tiny smiles as the 31st comes to pass once again. Keep creating your Magic that steals away the Soul...
