Introduction Artist, Freelance Writer. All of the pen and ink designs you see here are available at my online store at www.ArtByAlida.com
Interests I want my art walking down the street, not hanging on a wall. My artistic influences are Andy Warhol, Peter Maxx, R.Crumb, and Leonardo Da Vinci.
Favorite Movies "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington" - Oh, how I wish our government really operated that way. I consider this movie to be in the fantasy category. "The Wizard of Oz" - I need a new heart. (Could use some new brains, as well.) "Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou" - Didn't think Hollywood could still make a good family movie with darn good music anymore, did ya? And just for kicks, I love to watch Hindi movies made in Bollywood. They don't have lots of sex and violence in them, and they do have lots of music and singing and dancing.
Favorite Music Bluegrass, Newgrass, Indie, World, Classical, and everything in between.
Favorite Books Advice to Artists (by Leonardo Da Vinci), A Coloring Book (by Andy Warhol), comic books by R.Crumb, The Four Agreements (by Don Miguel Ruiz), the Bible, the Qur'an, and Siddartha (by Herman Hesse). I could go on forever, but you get the general idea.
