About Me

I'm an award winning professional visual artist. I like to draw my fellow humans in charcoal or pastel and use symbols, metaphor and surrealistic imagery in my work. I am sometimes a gallery curator and art consultant. I make commissioned portraits.I have three grown independent children and they are amazing. I have 10 siblings and given that fact, I obviously have the best Mom in the world!I am passionate and serious about life and love, but playfulness and a good laugh add spice and fun. I feel happiest being near oceans, rivers, lakes and streams. Dancing free-form is a lifelong passion. I like to stay fit and besides dance, I love walking, hiking and yoga. I sometimes play the Irish drum, but mostly so that I can get into the circle close enough to the musicians to have a better view to sketch them. I like to meet new people and travel. I tend to be kind and gentle and genuinely care about people. I trust my intuition.I started my own cafe/gallery business and that still gets raves but I am ready to switch gears and look forward to spending more time making art! It may be fun to own a gallery, I have enough connections in the art world to make that happen. The world is our oyster, let's dive in! I believe that dating long distance can work if there is a good, strong connection!I enjoy the company of intelligent and creative fun-loving men who are in their element attending cultural events or simply having an evening at home, sharing a bottle of wine and creating slow food together. I look forward to meeting new people and I am interested in finding a life partner. Dating is an important component in making a good match! How about we begin, let's meet for a traditional cappuccino! Well first maybe just a coffee to get a feel for one another. If we click, an ideal first "date" would be to meet for a nice glass of imported wine by candlelight in an elegant and subdued club. Then we could take in an art opening of some really fabulous surrealist paintings where we would meet and have great conversation with interesting and colorful people. Maybe it would be a "happening" sort of place, with live art going on and weird and wonderful live music, spoken word and dancing! Afterwards, small plates at a hip tapas bar. Yes, that would be a dream date, but I would be happy with something a little less spectacular, especially since you are spectacular!

    Life is full of turns and twists, didn't expect to ever be "dating" again, but here I am!I'm not really into "want to meet you's"...a written message from you is more important... Nature offers so much and I have to breathe it in daily; it energizes and grounds me. There is no better stress relief!!My three grown children are amazing young adults and I'm proud as can be to watch them carve out their lives. I'm convinced my Grandchildren are put here on earth to remind me just how simple and easy "happy" can be!I've had a solid career in Telecommunications and retirement is nearly planned... I'm soooooo looking forward to the next half of life. Fewer agendas, and more freedom!I enjoy the movement of a strong healthy body. Health and Well-Being is such a natural part of my life. I love to play and I desire to be physical until the day I die. I don't care if I live to 53 or 153, I just want to be able to wake up each day and physically do what I want with my body anytime. I have a passion for nature, old cars, motorcycles and horses! I know, quite the combination! I've had a motorcycle license since I was 15, but rolled my Cruiser... so I sold my 650cc for a single Horse power...and I'm Loving it!!!!FYI - I'm just as comfortable in my ropers as I am in my stilettos.Life is great and unfolding, I don't want to miss out in any fun during these upcoming decades. I'm always looking forward to tomorrow's gift of adventure.You are truly happy with Who You Are! It has taken a Lifetime to arrive here today, a combination of not so perfect life experiences coupled with the perfect ones, all of which has focused you to become the Man you are now, and yet you are still eager to Be and Experience more!!I Believe:The Basis of Life is FreedomThe Purpose of Life is JoyThe Result of Life is Growth...What do you believe? Lot's 'o Laughter!

    Woman. 53 years old. Zodiac sign: Aries.

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    Life's a journey, not a destination and I would love to find that special man to journey along with me. I love wine and travel; but nothing beats a live NFL game and a hot dog. Actually, I enjoy hiking, working-out, and dancing. I'm a foreign film buff, can’t live without my Kindle, and totally get into home improvement projects. I have an awesome supportive network of close friends and family which are extremely important to me. I thoroughly love my career and enjoy going to work each day. DRAMA FREE! Really just looking for someone who makes me laugh; don't you think we take life to seriously?? I find a sense of humor and intelligence very sexy. If you can free up for short adventures, that’s a plus! Life is great; just looking for someone to share in the good times. First date, that's a tricky one. It would be nice to meet somewhere the two of us could talk and get to know each other without it being too noisy or too secluded. It's always good to meet for coffee or a glass of wine and see where that leads. But doing something fun and active like hiking or bowling is also a great way to get to know someone new and it takes the pressure off the one-on-one vibe but it stills lends itself to conversation. I love going to movies, plays, and concerts, but I wouldn't advise that for a first time date; it's safe, but it doesn't allow you to get to know anything about your date.
