A week in view

I've been FRAMED!!!

That's an amazing frame job of my print "The World Of Traceable Ghosts" that was purchased by my friend Billy Coleman who is an art enthusiast and artist as well. I like the mat color and how it makes the whole thing pop and also seems like part of the pink designs in my piece are effortlessly flowing into the frame. Good job and idea Billy!
I still have about 9 prints left if anyone is interested in them. They are 12" x 18" and printed on archival quality cardstock with a gloss finish and are signed and numbered....LIMITED EDITION! You can very easily buy them in a click, click, click right here
I really should be writing this blog on Sunday but I foresee much resting that day. I wanted to do a recap of the weeks productivity. I'll admit a zillion things and people have popped up to tear me away from my studio but that's life and it's been enjoyable for the most part. But here we go, a visual look at what has been created in the studio this week:
A Dalai Lama on vinyl record with a Golden Lotus for my friend Ricardo Velez
A Tomata du Plenty on vinyl record for my friend Joey Seeman
 A Bomb Pop POP ART for my friend Patrick
A Bomb Pop POP ART for nobody so it could be yours for $18
An Hour Swap painting on wood that was snatched up by Lisa Walter

So as of Friday morning 5 small works and I was shooting for 9 this week. Time to get to work! I feel an Hour Swap coming on today!

How I had the best art year

  This was the year I got rejection letters from every open call I applied to. Granted, it wasn't very many I applied to because I am very picky about what I sign up for AND I am also very jaded about these things of late.  However, this was my best art year to date and I kinda love that it was all rejection notices this year and I STILL HAD THE BEST ART YEAR EVER. Takeaway: Today's open calls are very "agenda based" and the jurors they choose to judge have their agendas. Some want more millennials and younger artists and shun the older artists, some want you to tackle race, gender identity, politics, feminist, pro this or that.... And my art does not. I'm going to stick by  my "Nature is more important than most bullshit" stance till I die because the very atom of life and Nature is more important in my eyes than most of the stuff humans do to feel more important than another group.  But I digress! I did not get into the velvet rope clubs and it was gre

So what's the Scenario?

Street Artist 'My Dog Sighs' Paints Faces on Cans Found Littered on the Street I found this interesting art on Pinterest and thought it would be a good example for a proposed scenario.....indulge me if you will.... The scenario is this....this street artist paints on cans. Pretty cool right? Pretty neat! He's probably not the only one who paints on cans in the world but he most likely is the only one in his little neck of the woods and art circle. Ok, let's pretend I invite this CAN painter to be in this big group show we do annually at my gallery. (This is pretend land, I dont have a gallery but roll with me...)  Ok, he is a hit, everyone thinks his can faces are awesome and he's considered pretty unique for doing this medium in our little art circle. Ok fast forward into the future....it's a year later and it's time for our big annual show...here's the scenario....we don't invite the CAN artist to come show again BUT we do hand out a can

Year of the Dragon

  First off, Happy New Year to my blog readers! Not sure if I actually have blog readers but if I do- I wish you well! We are coming up on the Chinese Lunar New Year and it's Year of the Dragon! I jumped into the year at a crazy pace and really need to pace myself for ALL THE THINGS I'm trying to accomplish. First off it was very important to me to launch a couple things and explore some other platforms. Those being: Tiktok, Patreon and YouTube I'll go on to say that I actually did not want to do any of these. I repeat DID NOT WANT TO DO THESE.  *Didn't think I was worthy for people to pay me on Patreon and also thought creating perks for people monthly was a lot of work. So far ...IT IS A LOT OF WORK....but I am new and growing from the ground up and that's how it is. Growing pains! I'm working to learn and streamline this so it goes hand in hand with... *YouTube channel! Who actually does not enjoy seeing my weird face and voice in a video? Hi. ME. I really di
