- My Interests: I really enjoy illustrating - most of my illustrations aren't in any online gallery, deviantART or Artician, for need of improvement and refinement. I guess it's one of those things that I'd prefer to keep to myself.
I'm a big reader, and it's rare for me not to have my nose stuck in a book. I particularly enjoy classic novels like Vanity Fair and Wuthering Heights, but I also read books with poor reviews and a lot of flames before I begin to fix all the mistakes in them. The only work of this kind that I've ever shown to anyone was my very extensive list of everything wrong with Twilight - after all, lists about that aren't exactly nonexistent; a lot of people have written one.
I enjoy British comedies like Black Books and Fawlty Towers, as well as some American ones such as The Big Bang Theory and Fox News (ohohoho).
That's pretty much it for me.
Now tell me about you.
- Artists I like: I'm quite a fan of the Heidelberg movement, so some of my favourites would be Louis Buvelot, Frederick McCubbin and Jane Sutherland. I also find impressionistic pieces interesting, so Gustave Caillebotte, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro and Pierre-Auguste Renoir are also some noteworthy artists to me.
Mostly I just look out for individual pieces rather than artists, because so many of them these days try a variety of things and rarely establish a distinctive style or subject matter that interests me.
- Styles I like: Just about anything - as long as there's something really interesting about it to capture my imagination.
But not comic books.
- Movies I like: A lot of movies, I suppose. Yesman, Pirates of the Caribbean, Coraline, Sherlock Holmes, classic Disney movies... they're all pretty cool.
- Bands I like: Muse, Paramore, Missy Higgins, Bloc Party, Mute Math, Owl City, Mae, The Killers, Doris Day, Blue Foundation, The Andrews Sisters, The All-American Rejects, Death Cab for Cutie, Feist... all quite groovy.
I'm also a fan of classical/baroque/romanticist music, so I have a lot of compositions by Vivaldi, Bach, Pachelbel, Beethoven, W.A. Mozart, Schubert and Albinoni
- Music I like: If you know all the bands and artists listed above, then you'll probably have realised by now that my taste in music varies a lot. I enjoy swing, jazz, classical and alternative rock the most, probably, and I can endure just about anything.
But please don't make me listen to that dreadful screamo stuff. Ew.
- Games I like: Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life, Pokemon Pearl, World of Warcraft, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, The Endless Forest, Spore.
Oh, how I love them all <3
- Music Player: iPod. Please. I'm so sick of my iRiver right now.
