Serpentine Seductions

work in progress....

2013 is the Year of The Snake, I had to put a little reminder in this painting to mark the occasion. I have sooo much work to do on this painting that I shouldn't even think about it and should just DO IT. It's going to be a nose to the grindstone kind of week, especially since I took the day off yesterday from painting. The weather was gorgeous and I was seduced by my bike and the sunshine. I also fit in friend time and saw some live rock n roll, it was a great weekend! I've been feeling under the weather and still fighting with my immune system and a lingering cough. I may end up going to a doctor by weeks end if I don't see a resolution...I'm kinda thinking theres some pneumonia hanging out in my lungs. :/

Finally got all the art to my wonderful collector Randy Parker (hi Randy!) and got to see it in it's new home, made me so happy!

I love that these went into a bedroom as a lot of the imagery initially came from my dreams. I wonder if these will influence some wonderful color soaked dreams too?

I was asked how would one collect a piece of my work so I will answer to everyone in general- it's really as simple as sending me a message and asking if it's available. If it is I will tell you the price and I even do payment plans. Sometimes my work is at a gallery and you can purchase through there, sometimes it's at my house and you can purchase through me. Until I "sign" with a gallery that is how you can get a piece. : ) I'm on a tricky road right now- creating pieces for my big show and creating pieces I should sell ASAP to pay the rent. I want the quality to remain the same and I don't want to crank something out on the quick, not my style....everyone deserves my utmost best. Maybe making some smaller pieces is the way to fund my major works? Maybe I'm over thinking things.

Maybe I just need to shut up and get to work! Most likely! :D

Off to play with snakes and bats and other things girls think are icky!

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The New Way

Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space: All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space. Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists. These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls. These look great together- I hope whoever eventually buys them is able to get both of them. Its a fun horizontal/vertical juxtaposition. The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible! Ther...

One thing leads to another

Sometimes it just takes one little action to get things rolling in the right direction. For me the action was ordering a giant roll of bubble wrap I didn't even have space for and when it arrived I had to figure out where it would live because my cats were already trying to hug it with their teeth and sharp little claws. Also, why bubble wrap? What for? I'm a big believer in taking some sort of action, big or small to make yourself move in a certain direction. I also believe in productive manifesting and the bubble wrap symbolized shipping. Shipping art out. Shipping lots of art out. Shipping out so much art I was justified in living with a big roll of bubble wrap for awhile! So step one: order the bubble wrap and step two was the fun task of... Making a place for it to live. So manifesting was already happening and I decided I needed a designated area for shipping supplies and hell.. My printer needed a proper home too. I had a very messy shelf with an old printer on ...
