Tempus Fugit









My Muses


    Angels - mainly fallen ones with broken wings. My angels~ are curiously strange, a bit macabre, somewhat melancholy, love to read Baudelaire, Dickinson, Plath, Sexton and other dead poets, are ghost angels from times past and they love to whisper their secrets to me.

    My Muses also love to have tea parties with me and the monsters who live under my bed...heh!

“I think that the indefinable space between happy and sad is the most moving and compelling place for an artist to be. If there's anything I consistently strive for, it's a melancholy limbo.” -Shawn Colvin

“A breath of wind from the wings of madness.” -Baudelaire

“Modernity is the transient, the fleeting, the contingent; it is one half of art, the other being the eternal and the immovable.” -Baudelaire

"When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight." - Kahlil Gibran
