Prince vs Prints

The Prints are here! The Prints are here!

Both make me feel like dancing. Tonight we're gonna party like it's 19  ninety nine!

I was super psyched to get my prints in yesterday and headed right away to pick up a few frames. I was thinking small and that people would probably want the prints as cheap as possible and NOT want frames but the framed ones sold like hot cakes within 2 hours of posting so I had to go hunt down more frames. That was a task and it's still a learning process for me -pricing and finding things affordably so I can offer them affordably and still make my money back I put in plus a tiny profit.
At any rate the framed pieces (I have a few more left now) are priced at $32 (does not include shipping) and the unframed prints are $22. These are limited edition, numbered and signed, printed in full color on glossy card stock. If you message me I'll send you paypal info, etc. Quite a few of these have sold already and I haven't even put them on my site yet! GIGGITY!
I also sold a set of 10 buttons. have I showed you buttons yet? Let's look at buttons...
My friend ARTBOT 138 made these for me for kicks and also as part of a little barter. I bartered a BATTLE BONES I found by the side of the road to him in exchange for these little promos. The idea was to give one out with a record purchase but as soon as I posted them on facebook the LIKE-O-METER went up and I was asked how much, etc, etc. ARTBOT 138 noticed this and said I could use his nifty button maker to make myself a batch so I can offer them up for sale. 50 cents is the bank breaking price on one. The designs are from my records and paintings so it's like you can wear a little piece of my art or give them to a friend or throw them at people or whatever you wanna do with them. More will be made SOON! But in the meantime...I have some framing and signing to do and...Piyo. And thinking of my next blog about ART PLUNGING which as you can see by this blog sometimes leads you into the wonderful world of button making and listening to Prince. A nice endeavor if I do say so myself! Big thanks to everyone who has purchased prints, buttons, records, paintings, etc...you guys rock and are awesome supporters! Love, love, love to you!

Words!

  Hello! I haven't blogged since last year. Even writing the word "blog" felt foreign and weird! I have actually been writing stuff on my Patreon account so if you've missed the updates you can sign up for free over there. There is also an option to pay a few dollars a month to help support me as an artist and get "extra" content- in case you are of that mindset and either way- thank you for caring about the art adventures.  I have missed blogging actually. I guess I like to make words, string them together like a pretty necklace and let them live their own expressive life wrapped around me.  Times are different. Times are weird! But I guess you know that. And also times are the same and as old as time. Is it really more terrible than any other time or are we humans just more "connected" to the propaganda and daily bad trip in a way that is insane and unhealthy? Either way I do my best to keep my sanity and I don't believe about 98% of what I s...

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
