3d to 2D

Things I cant live without

ice cream- love my sweets


a sketch pad- I am constantly doodling and writing down ideas that pop into my head


ipod- listening to music makes me happy when I am not having a good day. Listening to songs brings me back to old memories or create new ones.


eyedrops- I have horribly dry eyes!

Favorite Artists

                                                           Claude Monet: Impressionist



Antoine Molinero: Carribian Expressionist



Frida Kahlo: from Mexico, feminist, indigenous 








Books

Inspirational Books (I have read):


National Geographic (magazine)- I have an interest for different cultures. Love learning about the animals and tribal cultures (problems, fun facts, etc)



Lord of the Flies by William Golding- 



this book is about a group of british school boys that get stranded on an island who try to govern themselves, ending in horrible results. 
It is interesting to me the relationship we humans have with our inner-(primitive)selves

My Antonia- Willa Cather


This is about a young boy (Jim) who moves from Virginia to Nebraska where he meets a young Bohemian immigrant girl (Antonia). The story follows the friendship of both Jim and Antonia as they grow up through the good and bad times. 







I would like to read:



Water for elephants- Sara Gruen
 A man named Jacob has plans of taking over his fathers vetenarian business when he finds out that his parents die in a car accident. He decides one night to leave school (college) and jumps on a train, which happens to be a circus train. He soon finds out that the leader of this train is abusing the animals as well as his wife, and Jacob plans to stop him.


The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn- Mark Twain

 I have never read them but all my friends have growing up, they sound interesting and adventurous


Eat, Pray, Love- Elizabeth Gilbert


Sounds like an interesting Chick-flick, I have never sene the movie but heard it was good. Might be good advice for life.
