Artist description
Veronica Tangent was born in the ancient rainforests of Vancouver Island. Whilst still an infant, Ms. Tangent moved to the tiny island-nation of Dominica with her draft-dodging parents. She later travelled the world in her parents home-made, ocean-going motor-home (US patent#23558478-A67). Rebelling against her parents free-wheelin' ways, Veronica bought a deserted castle near Milan with revenues inherited from her father' patent.Bored of life as an Italian Princess, and having squandered several billion lira, the ever-peripatetic Ms. Tangent eventually resettled back in Canada.Veronica has already dabbled in the fields of professional athletics, fashion/nude modelling, avante-garde photography and forensic anthropology. She is a member of Amnesty International, the Council of Canadians, and has successfully infiltrated Canada's top-secret spy network, CSIS. Tired of all that, the indefatigable Princess Veronica has now decided to become a SuperPopStarSinger. |
