12 Days

"Alight"  acrylic/krylon/latex on canvas  12" x 16"

"Coccinelidae" acrylic/krylon/latex on canvas 20" x 30"

This week I made it a point to PAINT LIKE CRAZY while I felt good and also pushed away the little table I set beside my bed when I'm ill. There's something freeing about doing that. Clearing away the pill bottles, putting the crackers back in the kitchen and removing all traces of being an invalid. It's a mental thing, it helps a lot. Granted in about 12 days that table will be back- for now I can act like a normal girl. I even made myself get out of the house, put on nice clothes and makeup and go see some art shows. I have to fully enjoy these GOOD days as best as I can. Saw lots of friends this weekend and that was great and much needed.
Today it's back to the grindstone, another day of feeling well means another day of work, work, work. I am going to be in Kettles Jubilee show on April 18 . Djing Texas Theater on April 20. Planning on the week of the 25th to be the "bad week" and can't plan beyond that right now. The bad week will decide a lot on what will happen next in terms of medical plans, surgery, etc. I'm in limbo right now but it is what it is. In the meantime I paint like crazy. Luckily, I love painting like crazy. Enjoy the weekend and your health!

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...

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...

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...
