Favorite Designers/Artists:

I'm drawn to ethnic art of all kinds, most of which are not signed by the artist or crafter. There are lots of artists on Etsy that I admire and all the famous artists that I know of are dead and in museums. I've also started featuring some artists in my blog, and they are becoming good mentors for me.

Favorite Music/Musicians:

Ry Cooder, Tom Waits, Caetano Veloso, Chico Buarque, Marisa Monte, Dead Can Dance, Harry Belafonte, Baaba Maal, Tom Jobin, Bob Dylan, Texas Tornadoes and lots more. My favorite instruments are the accordian and harmonica. Almost anything with those sound good to my ears.

Favorite TV Show & Movies:

MASH, Foreign movies, almost anything on Sundance, Harold and Maude, The Dog Whisperer, Alfred Hitchcock, and on and on.
