Chop Chop Back To Work!

"The World of Traceable Ghosts"

I was a bad little freelancer and took the weekend off....sorta. I did WORK Sunday night doing a DJ gig to make a little scratch so I don't feel TOO guilty. The weekend was fun and full of friends but today it's back on the pony and off to work.
Supposedly my work (featured in photo up there)  is on magazine stands now but I have yet to secure a copy of ORIGIN MAGAZINE to check out the little feature. Maybe today if there is time I will go a huntin'! It should be at WHOLE FOODS, BARNES AND NOBLE and perhaps CENTRAL MARKET. I'm super excited to see it!
For my birthday I got a ton of cool little buttons from ARTBOT 138. He pressed up some from my record art and paintings so you can have a little mini detail of my work to wear! How cool is that? I'll have to divvy them up into little sets and create a price. I was pleased to see the new Bowie record piece I painted made into a button!
I also had two wonderful things happen on my birthday...an ETSY sale and an EBAY sale! Woohoo! I was particularly excited by the EBAY sale because I was having NO luck getting my stuff seen on there and had relisted about four times before it was bought. That's just a reminder, keep putting your fishing pole in the water you will catch fish eventually. 
The deadline to have all my stuff ready for Wine Therapist is on Sept 17 so I am officially in hustle mode. I have to finish two commissions before I can get back to my work so BUSY BUSY BUSY in the BEEHIVE! Picking up my work from Latino Cultural Center so all my babies will be home again for awhile, AWWWW! I had nothing but good feedback from the show and was honored to be included. OK, time to get stuff packed and shipped and cleaned and painted. Have a great return to work everyone!

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...

Digital Vacation

  Have you looked around and discovered you have filled your life with bad habits? If you said NO- good for you, you might not be human! 😁  I was experiencing a major BLAH and it was all because of ME. What I spent time on, consumed, did and did not do. I also felt like the willpower I used to have in abundance was gone and I wondered if I would ever get it back.  First and foremost I had to look at my main bad habits. What was the very first thing I did every day. EVERY DAY! I reached for my phone, I social media blitzed my brain over two long cups of coffee every morning. I made sure to look at my MEMORIES like it was my job every day. Ruminating on the past and seeing everyone's angry opinions and celebrity/political posts and regurgitated memes ad nauseum....is actually not a very optimistic and healthy way for me to cruise into the day. Not only is this not good for my spirit it wasted almost two hours of every morning. 💀 That's precious time!  I'm weaning mys...
