Don't really have favorites. I prefer classical, instrumental, and some new age.

Don't have favorites because there are too many that I genuinely like. My taste in movies is eclectic--from independent film to foreign film, I enjoy romance, comedy, drama, documentary, suspense, etc.

"Creating art is a natural expression of my soul's deeper calling. Each creation is a distinct note from an inner well of stillness, beauty and grace that is the essence of who I am."

I live a quiet life in the country with most of my days spent painting, studying/reading, nature walks, and writing poetry.
Recently, I began the indepth study of BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny) and Zi Wei Dou Shu. The first thing I learned from my own chart calculation was that I was born under a Creative Star and that I am here to create beauty through artistic endeavors. Ha! You think I would have figured this out before my mid 50's ;-)

My purpose is to create art and poetry, embracing the stillness, beauty and grace existing in all things.

I have a beautiful quote that is in my faves book about poetry I want to pass it on to you:"Poetry is the most concentrated form of literature; it is the most emotionalized and powerful way in which thought can be presented." quote by Amy Lowell 1917 she really sums it up for me. ENJOY!! Lindy
