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...

Taming the monster

What started as me deciding to spend 30 minutes picking out clothes to donate from my closet .. Turned into about 2 hours of folding t shirts, jeans and deciding winter was far enough away that all sweaters and coats could be packed away. My closet was a walk-in diaster. My cat had lived in it all winter, knocked stuff down, slept on it, fuzzed up clothes and built forts. No lie.  I had been living in the same two pairs of jeans and 5 shirts off my bedroom floor (closet #2 😂). First things first, all the T shirts from OLD JOBS were the first to get put in donation pile. I don't need memories of "that place" and they were all too small, waaay too large or tan/beige/grey ..all the wrong unhappy colors that just say JOB when you look at them. Bye! So that happened yesterday. Major project that still needs work but for now it is peaceful enough to my brain to leave it alone. I have two large loads of laundry to do because my clothes look like...well like a cat has been sleep...

The Age of Upgrade

BIG BATCH OF HAND PAINTED WAX FOR SAN FRANCISCO I wanted to do a  blog about the upgrade I'm doing and why. Because I am an artist and not a business person I have been lax on so many things I shouldn't have been and caused myself a lot of headaches. This was a year of growing pains for my business and days before my birthday I decided my new age of 39 would be one of grand changes. For starters...I'm typing this on an old Android phone. It's the only equipment I have. My old Mac finally gave up the ghost and I can no longer do any graphic designing in Photoshop or even save files. This will need to be upgraded, I need a computer. Let's talk about vinyl though...I started doing the vinyl about 6 years ago and they were pretty basic novice attempts at painting on vinyl. After many experiments, failures and tons of practice... I have brought them into their own. They started as $30 discs and climbed as I got better. I marked everything DOWN to $50 this year...
