This is my website, I am el, and I is also emily Rose Powers Havermann. In 1979 birth was given to me. Since then I have drawn, painted, photographed, and imagined of doing so much more - but haven't. I use spray-paint, inks, Macs, stencils, stickers, walls, and not much of a brain. Basic schooling taught me nothing, all immaculate talent is due to self-teaching and spectacular natural brilliance. I love my Nikon F3, and will fight to the death against digital cameras and the capital letter "e". A self made millionaire, I have no need to work for a living. My current habitat is a small bedroom in Toronto. I've travelled to the U.S., england, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, and Jamaica. Yes, the 2005 movie titled "The exorcism of emily Rose", is based on my very real and tragic life. And man oh man, do I like to feed the birds. For all inquiries and complaints contact me at 37w@rogers.com. 37w is MLE upside-down and backwards. MLE is emily. emily is me. If your eyelids are open, then you are currently looking at my website. I like rabbits, and I like Watership Down.

: An excerpt from The Watership Down Film Picture Book with linking text by Richard Adams, 1978 :
"Long ago Frith made the world. Frith made all the animals and birds, but when he first made them they were all the same. el-ahrairah was among the animals in those days... and after a time the rabbits wandered everywhere, multiplying and eating as they went. then Frith said to el-ahrairah, 'Prince Rabbit, if you cannot control your people, I shall find ways to control them. So mark what I say.' But el-ahrairah would not listen and he said to Frith, 'My people are the strongest in the world, for they breed faster and eat more than any of the other people.' Frith determined to get the better of el-ahrairah not by means of his own great power but by means of a trick. He gave out that he would hold a great meeting and that at that meeting he would give a present to every animal and bird, to make each one different from the rest... And so in their turn came the fox and the stoat and the weasel. And to each of them Frith gave the cunning and fierceness and the desire to hunt and slay the children of el-ahrairah... Then el-ahrairah knew that Frith was too clever for him and he was frightened. He dug a hole, but he had dug only a little of it when Frith came over the hill alone. And he saw el-ahrairah's bottom sticking out of the hole, and said, 'My friend, have you seen el-ahrairah, for I wish to give him a gift?' 'No,' answered el-ahrairah. 'He is far away. He could not come.' So Frith said, 'Come out of that hole and I will bless you instead of him.' 'No,' said el-ahrairah. 'I am busy. If you want to bless me you can bless my bottom, for it is sticking out of the hole.' Then Frith felt himself in friendship with el-ahrairah, and he said, 'Very well. Bottom, be strength and warning and speed for ever.' El-ahrairah's tail grew shining white and flashed like a star; and his back legs grew long and powerful and he tore across the hill faster than any creature in the world... And Frith called after him, 'All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.' "
