I’m 33, a native of north Alabama and recent transplant to Portland Oregon. I collect carnivorous plants native to the Southeastern US (Sarracenia), and journey to remote corners of the Deep South to see them in situ. Among pixel artists I’m known as cure, and I’ve used some variant of that handle since I started pixelling in 2005.
