I got my username from Neil Gaiman's "Sandman" comic book series (DC Vertigo). It refers to a city populated by undertakers, whose life work is to learn and respect the funerary customs of every culture in the universe. Some time ago, I got curious, and looked up "litharge" in the dictionary, and learned that it also refers to lead oxide, used in the manufacture of paints and inks. Seemed appropriate for an art-related site.

What do you want to know about me? I'm 31, married, no kids, five cats, and an agnostic vegetarian with very diverse musical tastes. I live in Texas and am a full-time college student majoring in English with a double minor in Fine Arts and Mass Communications. If you're really interested, or bored, the URL below is to my personal website, where you can read some of my writings and see more of my artwork.
