Erins Background
Well, here's some baisic stuff aboutme (most of you know this stuff already!!)
My name is
Erin Theresa Calder Scarnato
I was Born in Queens, NY on September 24 (I am a Libra!) and grew up on Long Island, in East Northport.
I have two younger Brothers, Jimmy, and Peter.I left Long Island when I was 12 years old, and moved to PA.
Since the time I was a child, I have loved expressing myself through art and poetry. I earned an Associates degree in Fine Arts, From Bucks County Community College. I enjoy painting, drawing, photography and 3-D sculpture as well as multimedia.
My interest in people, and psychology, led me
to continue on to earn my B.S. degree in Art Therapy,
from Long Island Universitys CW Post Campus.I believe that art is a very important modality of therapeutic sublimation.
I had the opportunity to work with a diverse array of patient populations during my training as an art therapist, including an internship at The Behavioral Health Unit for older Adults, in Delaware Valley Medical Center, as well as another internship at The Helen Keller School, in Sands Point,NY..
I enjoy traveling , and have had the opportunity of visiting the three countries of my heritage, Ireland, England, and Scotland, several times. Pete and I spent our Honeymoon in Ireland, and just spent 2 weekes in Scotland this past November! We are returning to Ireland for two weeks this spring (2006) to visit the ring of Kerry!
Pete and I both LOVE animals! Our current animal companions include: Our 3 year old Black Lab: Luna, and kitty, Jezabelle.
I am a vegetarian (for the past 14 years or so), I hate the taste, and thought of eating meat,in addition to loving animals. my Fav flowers...Orchids, roses and Tiger Lilies.
Fav things to do in my "free time" include, Spending time with Peter J. Scarnato (My Husband of 4+ years!), Home improvements :),Poetry readings, Open Mic, outdoor cafe's, writing, the beach, hanging out with crazy people (friends), life drawing class with Sharon (on Tuesday nights)..which we should be starting up again soon!, rollerblading, music, painting, buying stuff i dont need and will never use, playing therapist to all my friends,hours wasting time in the book store drinking vanillia skim latte',walking around NYC, etc, etc....
OK, that's enough about me for now. I am sure I will think of more things to add later, so please return!
