Meeting with a Gallery

"The Path of Intuition" acrylic/krylon on canvas 24" x 24" collection of Randy Parker

Just got the High Res in of the lucky painting "The Path of Intuition". I say it's lucky because good things have come about since this painting was born. One- I made a new friend! And the new friend collected this painting and another work (he has amazing taste apparently) and he was so kind hearted he let me borrow it back to enter into a competition that won me a much needed $500! So let's hear it for the lucky bat AND Mr. Randy Parker my kind hearted amigo! While I still have it this piece is going to a meeting with me today. I've been waiting for this meeting for awhile and am curious and excited to see how it will go. It's a meeting with an interested gallery- name undisclosed for now. I have a couple more galleries to look into before I commit to anything but I am on the hunt for the right fit and finally think my work is up to snuff and getting better every day. I'll post about the meeting after things happen. I'm hoping 2013 finds me tied up with the best people looking to help me get my work out there and succeed. For now the hard work is all on me, it's all me baby. 
Directly from the meeting my work has been requested to show at the Kessler Theater! It's right around the block from me so I'm thrilled at the easy trip. Plus Oak Cliff gets to check out one of it's own, born and bred. The totem will also be on view at the Kessler so if you haven't gotten a chance to see it yet-that's where it will be. I'll post about the show when it's hung, maybe there will be a little art party for it?
But I got sidetracked...the high res photo means...PRINT TIME! So expect nice bright prints of this one next. It's actually what I'm going to use my prize money on- making some prints and I ordered some supplies for my biz. More blank record boxes for shipping! I have to thank Sam Bortnick of Sam Bortnick Photography for shooting all my paintings thus far and making them super lovely for me. Things are well at Tigerbee Arts and I feel wanted, loved and collected. Who can complain?
Not me.
Not me.

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...
