(Sweet! This is my favorite part!)

Ahem.

My name is Amanda Kay Baker. I am a Pisces.

Hello.

I currently reside in Northern California and have since 2009.

I can see this view every day if I want to!

Before that I lived in Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.

Just in case you were wondering.

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point in 2007 with a double bachelor's degree in Art and Theatre.

Go Pointers!

Later on that year, my first illustrations were published in a book entitled The Cheesehead Night Before Christmas.

And here it is!

I am currently taking commissions (although I am the kind of person who will find something to keep me busy if there isn't enough to do already. Free time is for sissies).

Did I mention my blog?

Five things I like:

1.) Colored pencils, watercolors, and gel pens

2.) Green tea with jasmine

3.) Numbered lists

4.) Good oral hygiene

5.) Long, fussy words like "serendipitous" or "hullabaloo"



Five things I dislike:

1.) Raisins

2.) Cold weather

3.) Velvet sweatpants with words written across the butt

4.) Movies or shows where there is only one female character, and they make her a sex object/love interest

5.) Website templates that keep reverting back to the font you don't like instead of saving the one that you want (I mean... I love Yahoo Web Builder...)
