I'm definitely the arty type and enjoy all aspects of art and design. I am a member of the AGO and like to visit there and other galleries. As a book designer I have always been passionate about typography. I collect fine art photography.

My children are now interesting adults and live do not live in Toronto. I enjoy the empty nest but also like to travel to visit them and my 4 grandchildren. I love living in this wonderful city but it is much more dynamic to share things, I would like to meet the man of my dreams. I will know by the way I feel when I meet him. I do believe in chemistry. I do believe in kismet.

I travel on a regular basis to San Miguel de Allende, a colonial city in the heart of Mexico. My Spanish is passable. I also love the Caribbean and have done some sailing there. My son is in Asia, so I visited there last year. One of my aspirations is to take my granddaughter to Paris. I have never been there, and it is a great city for artists.

I am an outgoing person, but I also need quiet time. Most artists do. I can concentrate for long periods of time when I am working on a project. My children are my finest works of art, however.

I like entertaining, and I like to do it with simple style. The way things look is important to me because I am a visual person. My friends are important to me and I hope I am as good to them as they are to me!

My taste in music is quite wide. I love classical, jazz (not progressive), R & B, Rock, some country (especially for driving), Indie, and just about anything with a good drummer. I also like organ music and choirs. I have a lot of Bach, Miles Davis, Leonard Cohen. I like dancing the way we did in high school, and do a little salsa when in Mexico. The tango is beyond me. I think dancing is a great thing for a couple to do.

Coffee or lunch, something simple.
