I've recently started dating someone from OkCupid. Please no more date requests unless I dump him! :-)

I am an artist in Spring, Texas. I love to paint, to sculpt, and to make silly rhymes. I'm an over-achiever. So far.

My dad, an engineer-turned-businessman, once told me there's nothing more effective than an artist -- and nothing more pathetic than a lazy one. So I work very hard. (My dad has since passed away, and I've been questioning my memory; maybe it wasn't artists, but anarchists...)

I am single! But I'm only seeking gentlemen under 25, handsome and thin, smart and ambitious, straight, well-read, unusual, and non-smoking. A tattoo is a minus, unless you drew it yourself or can't remember getting it. Living in Houston is a plus right now. Having taken one of my tests (linked above) is a major plus, although your score could be a minus.



I am chicken, pot, and pie

Working on a tryptych oil, three nudes. None of the them are me, dirtbags.

I really like the work of John Currin, how he's reinterpretting -- or even resetting -- the Great Tradition, and all that liking is probably a little more clear in my own work right now than I'd like it to be. But I'm a really, really strong draftsman, and I think that will give me lots of headroom to work with as I develop my style.

Soon, I'm heading to New York. (Update...postponed) I've sold a couple paintings already down in Houston, and I have high hopes for the one I'm working on now.

I guess I'm on OkCupid to kill the time I can't paint. Here's to it.

I can draw a near-perfect circle blindfolded by using my hand as a compass. Unfortunately, I can't draw a straight line as well as I'd like, even with my eyes open.

My shadow. It's darker than most.

Rather tall.

I have a soft spot for guys younger than me. I walk well in high heels but never wear them.

I've decided you shouldn't message me. Now that I've answered 100 questions on this website, it looks like my results are meaningful.

I'll contact you if I'm interested.
