About me:
"waterlily"


About Me: I was born on a commune in topanga california. my parents were amongst the first hippies and lived in a school bus. what a wonderful bus it was!! on one side it had a mural of leonard peltier wearing a tiger striped speedo, holding chrysanthemum in his right hand and a rifle in his left hand. the other side was completely black. in the winter we faced the black side towards the sun to keep warm. for some of my young life we were gypsies and lived on the road for awhile. my mom performed magick and danced with coins glued to her belly for a living. my dad sat around and ate mushrooms all day. sometimes he would roll out of the bus like a donut and spread his jelly all over the earth. and we would sit and watch the lollipop trees growing from shallow pools of my dad's jelly secretions. it was . . .wooooow, man. it was cats and dogs and koolaid. so i grew up in this really odd matrix of things gone awry. when i reached the age of 18, i decided to seek normalcy and i went to college. that made me more well-informed, i guess. but not enough. so i went to grad school. i got my mfa, and i figured out how to act conventional. i have a conventional job in the art department of a local college and people see my daily costume and assume it represents some greater truth about who i am inside. this is good. it means i can pay my rent. i was going to say that i was a sheep in wolf's clothing, but that's not true. i don't know how to describe the costume and how it differs from the internal thing that i keep secret. so i shall suffice it to say that i am an impostor. what you see is not what you get. what you don't see is better than what you do see. i believe this is true of all of us.
Who I'd like to meet:
no one...argh!!!! leave me alone. :)

Hey Smith,

Great to hear from you! I always like visiting your site - I get lost in your work, and then visiting all the artists on your site. LOL.

Let me know if you have any shows coming up. My CD will be out the end of the month. Email me your address and I'll send you a copy.

Imaginez la vie comme si la mort n'était pas un souci et pas de mal pourrait venir de celui-ci parce que vous avez trouvé véritable objectif et expérimenté de bonheur et d'amour si grand que tout le reste semble arbitraire, dans la comparaison

xoxo,
Natalia
