Enjoy Reading or Drawing with Winona
I've always been crazy for reading, from the cereal box in the morning to a great book of adventure. Whenever I could find time as a girl I curled up in my grandfather's chair with a Tarzan or Nancy Drew Novel. I also love History, especially Ancient History. Books are a window to the world, whether it's an e-book or the old fashioned kind. I also would draw, on little tablets, what I interpreted from what I had read. This interest grew to drawing my animals and family, especially home-mad... Read more

I have a Bachelor's degree in both Global Studies and Spanish Language/Literature from the University of California, Sant... Read more
