Hot Dates

Monterrey Daydream # 2 and #1 acrylic/krylon on canvas 24" x 24" ea

I've just completed the 2nd canvas (on left) and it's on to the 3rd canvas I'll be entering into LuminArte Gallerys exhibit ARTE LATINO. Which brings me to the title of my blog, I have SOLID DATES on all these shows I'm booked up with. Got your calendars ready?
March 9- April 6 "ARTE LATINO" An exhibition of artists from Latin America at LuminArte Gallery
May 31-Aug 30 "Organum" SOLO SHOW at Baylor Health Sciences Library 
July 11-Aug 9 joint show at WAAS Gallery with artist Neil Matthiessen details TBA

I've been invited to a couple other things but it's all depending on how much I can complete without losing my mind. As much as I'd like to take ALL the candy I have to be realistic and not kill myself. 
I'm also not married to my paintings as you see them photographed. It is quite possible I will just start painting stuff all over them so they could be quite different by the time you see them. I have to keep growing and developing, learning and experimenting. Today I start the new canvas and get contracts signed and sent over, artists statements and bios and all that jazz are requested and my upcoming Composite Arts Magazine stuff needs to be turned in. In the middle of all that I need to get stuff ready for tomorrows DJ gig
A little dancing break in a sea of work!
And tomorrow if you're out on the town and want to collect some affordable art- Kettle Art Gallery is having a For The Love of Artists show. All the artists who donated their work to help Kettle have been invited to show... and all proceeds from this go straight to the artist. Check this link for all the info! I have two small pieces up for grabs. It's also the last day to see my records at Texas Theater before I bring em home and list em on Etsy!

And then come dance with me- it's FREE and you're not gonna see me for awhile!
Have a great weekend!

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
