Ok... so I'm a self indulged paper fanatic... who loves to make paper dolls, collect anything from the fantasy or world of make-believe. I adore Walt Disney fairytales and movies and I absolutely love nostalgia,history, mythology,psycology and philosophy.

I'm an excessive collector of old music , books, ribbons and lace. Quess , I'm an old spirit, who doesn't want to part with the memories. ( Not too old though ) Ha ha

I read the poetry of Chaucer, Stevenson, Longfellow,Shelley ,Keats , Blake, Cummings, and Robert Burns. I also partake in Shakespearean plays and ancient history and folklore. Of course I have to dress up for these events. What fun!!!

My favorite movies are: Labyrinth, Darby O'Gill and the Little People and Gone with the Wind. My favorite music is Handels', Messiah , the Halleluia Chorus.

Since childhood, I 've had quite a fetish for dragonflies, fairies and angels and really believe that anything is possible in this life.

My greatest challenge at present is fitting into a Kimono, so far I've got my left leg in.

My favorite food is Lobster and I love champagne for birthdays. It's the sound of the popping corks never mind the liquid.

Toulouse, France is a personal mainstay for my most romantic holiday times ... Eastern Canada is where I live part-time in the renovating dreamworld of a 150-year-old Victorian house. It's a lot of work but a glorious trip into another era.

My favourite song is ' What a Beautiful World" sung by the late, great Louie Armstrong. I love bright, happy colours like aqua blues, earthy greens, wild fuschias and delicious shades of violet. Old fashioned gardening is one of my passions. I adore columbine, lilies, baby's breath, roses, lilacs, daisies, gladiolas and all wildflowers.

If you got this far down ... WELCOME to Asia where I live part-time with my fabulous husband, McKim. I've retired from my busy Musical career and I am currently studying ancient Japanese folk arts, more specifically the art of creating Washi Dolls with a Master Doll Sensei and artisans...

I travel alot and partake in writing, singing, drawing and photography.... You might say that I'm addicted to self expression and artistic creativity.

My most precious treasures in the whole wide world are my beautiful children, grandchildren and family members and friends. Thank You GOD.
