    .... Experienced in: CSIII Photoshop and InDesign, Vegas Video 6.0, Intalgio printing, wax molding, dark room work, BW and color slide film, digital photographic restoration, and logo design. In my other spare life, I am a competitive fencer and coloratura soloist. "Fun" is going to zoos, aquariums, museums, formal dances, theater, and lively opera. I believe heartily in all things of honor, virtue, and beauty, and indulge in mischievous tendencies. Married at the tender age of 19, I am exquisitely happy with my choice of husband and highly recommend such marital bliss. "Happily forever after" is not a fantasy as some would have it.
  • Music

    Anything that encourages my creativity or sense of well-being. AKA: nothing that drowns in unintelligible screaming.
  • Movies

    Pixar, classic Disney, Miyazaki, Kurosawa, Hitchcock, the current direction of artistic development at Dreamworks.... like trying to list out favorite books, there can't be enough space here either.
  • Television

    Give me Turner Classic Movies any day, and On Demand is too convenient. Miss the ol' BBC series.
  • Books

    I'm a bibliophile, so one really can't have enough tomes.
  • Heroes

    I honor all who stand up and do what is right at all times, even when it is not popular, politically correct, career enhancing, or generally convenient. I also honor "the invulnerable child" -- men and women who came from difficult circumstances and yet courageously pressed on, becoming people of incredible strength in heart and soul. These two types of people are the ones who know the pains of the world and how to surmount them. These are heroes for what blessings they give to us by just existing.

About me:

While I slave away as artist, writer, and creative editor in Downtown Salt Lake City, my husband is storyboarding a feature-length stopmotion film over at Lumenas Studios, due to be released 2010. Originally from California, I've had the opportunity to travel and see things that continue to inspire my art and writing. When I'm not playing student or shrink, I enjoy creating gormet feasts, swordsmanship, wearing elegant corsets, and oggling great architecture. Most of all, I enjoy trying new things and learning the most I can. Moon is my actual married name, and all artwork posted here is mine. If you wish to make use of my work in any way, please request first. For updates and progress on my current projects, you can find me on Facebook or go to: http://quillmighty.blogspot.com/ to see more. Thank you!

Who I'd like to meet:

Norman Rockwell & Claire Wendling, but moreover be reunited with late family members.
