Do you enjoy Destination DIY? Please help out the all-volunteer team:
About me: I host this radio show/podcast called Destination DIY, which is an OPB podcast and airs on stations around the country. My radio work has also appeared on the NPR Station Showcase and The Splendid Table. I've produced feature stories and this radio documentary for Free Speech Radio News. I am also a sporadic, late-night dj.
I am the associate producer for Oregon Public Broadcasting's daily talk show show Think Out Loud. I used to be the staff writer at Just Out, Portland's queer newspaper. In the past, I've also written for Willamette Week as well as Portland neighborhood newspapers like The Sentinel.
I've covered a wide range of topics in my work from anarchist clowns and off-beat art projects to water quality and FBI activities. My mother once described my beat as “gay artists and reluctant government officials.” I grew up in Baltimore, attended Oberlin College and now, I live happily in Portland, Oregon in a house full of men and cats.
MUSICIANS PLEASE NOTE: My show is not a music show and I do not review music, albums or shows. I have too many friends I want to keep in the music community. Please do not send me requests for music reviews.

Hear the colors, see the sounds: Musical interpretation through paint
I create abstract expressions to Live music, allowing the shows energy to inspire the piece. While the bands perform, I translate their music so you hear the colors and see the sounds. Creating a show that’s unlike anything that anyone has ever seen before.
Painting live is intense - evolving with both the music and the audience along with every stroke and new color that is introduced to the canvas. Leaving all who witness, feeling as if they too, are part of creating a masterpiece. (all shows are documented digitally w/video and photo to be posted on all of my networking sites)
Honing my skills underground for 2 years across the Midwest, I have now taken this beast to the stage. Trading in paintbrushes for twisted and crumbled, recycled newspaper give me the edge and depth I need when painting. Portland has a rich performance culture and I’m thankful for the chance to have already shared the stage with some of Oregon's musical finest.
Hey sorry about the weekend, I was in serious need of rest, I think I was in bed before 10 every night. Wanna get together this weekend? Anything exciting going on?
hear the colors and see the sounds! I want to work with" you"! Looking for new bands and or DJ to paint to their music. All genres, all types,all sounds. Check my page for more details about what I do or you can send me a message. This post goes out to all artist and musicians alike who would like to collaborate and create. Thank you for reading this. peace, CL
