Creating has many faces, and I find that many artists are versed in several avenues of creativity. For me, it's pretty much narrowed down to photography, writing and music. I can't cook, that's for sure. Sewing? Give me a break.
As a vocalist, I love jazz and the freedom it allows with improvisation. Some of my influences include Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sting and Stevie Wonder. I can't really read music, and I don't have the patience to learn, so I rely on my right brain for inspiration.
I also fool around with the keyboard, and have created a number of songs through Garageband. Most of my original material reflects my many travels, and my interests in ecclectic styles of music combining a variety of genres.
