I like stories, whether they're in print, art, music, film, or elsewhere. Most things have a story to tell, so I guess I like most things.
I'm more of a tradesperson than an artist, I have to admit. I'm a leather worker, and I hand tool designs on wallets, patches and the occasional bags that I make. Many of the things I make pertain to geekery in some way. My shenanigans can be seen here:
Interests
Favorite visual artist
Lisbeth Zwerger, Arthur Rackham, Maxfield Parrish, and a bunch of the wonderful folks here on DA
Favorite movies
Miazaki, David Lynch, Terry Gilliam, Von Trier, del Toro...
Favorite bands / musical artists
I like a pretty wide range of music. If I had to narrow it down, most of my favorites fall under "indie" these days.
Favorite books
Too maaaannny.
Favorite writers
Frederick Buechner, Patrick Rothfuss, Tolkein, Du Maurier... this "having to pick just a few" thing is painful.

Psychonauts, Dragon Age, WoW, Minecraft, Fable II, Arcanum, Fallout
Favorite gaming platform
Any with a good game!
Tools of the Trade
awls, swivel knives, stitch wheels, a good sharp skiver, dyes and finishes
