My self-summary Propose an edit
Currently doing Honours in Art History.
I paint (sporadically). I knit (also sporadically and very slowly).
It's granny-like but very addictive.
I love: music, music, more music, art, artists, photography,
watercolours, books, the colour and texture of yarn, trees
(especially in winter when they're bare), forests, mountains, good
food, peace and quiet, stars...
I am dealing with CFS and occasional depression. I think I'm doing
ok, but I'm probably not.

myself and become a better person, and trying to stay creative and
happy.
