I'm playful, funny, smart, talented, generous and reasonably comfortable with myself. I see life as endlessly interesting, and share what I see/hear/taste/learn through my writing, drawing, films and live productions. At this stage of my life I'm hoping to find a life partner who shares my lifestyle, art style and love style, and vice versa. Im complex and have high standards for myself and others, but always willing to consider others' needs and find common ground.

At this stage of my life, Im pulling together all the threads from all the careers I've already had. Call it synthesis. And counting my blessings, of which there are many. My work style (art/journalism) is integrated with my life style, and I'm productive.

cooking, writing, drawing, laughing, touching, designing, seeing things, talking about things, being friends, shopping, golf and dancing.

Women comment on my eyes and the sound of my voice. They use to comment on my hair, but a little less so now.

Foreign and noir films, BBC series, documentaries. My book reading tends to be non-fiction in support of my work: French cultural history, literary criticism, art history, philosophy, gastronomy. An occasional novel. Music: classical, jazz, world, folk, especially classical guitar, which I play. Food: endless interest in most everything, which I then write about for an on-line food journal.

the elegant, charming, funny and smart woman who will emerge in my life and join me in a lovely adventure.

sitting with friends at a dinner table or heading to a movie, restaurant, lecture or concert.

I have more female friends than male friends. I've never been a guy's guy.

...you are smart and creative, very good looking, fit, affectionate, confident enough to be with a unique and generous man, fun loving, generous with your time and ready for a life of cultural exploration, domestic tranquility and maybe part-time living in Paris? London? Florence, Barcelona? Im able to make this happen if you are ready!
