Up Down Turn Around Please Don't Let Me Hit The Ground

"Path of Nurturing" has just been SOLD AND COLLECTED

Wonderful and smart people are taking me up on my sweet offer to do PAYMENT PLANS so you can collect art. Just sold this large canvas to a collector who will have three of my pieces now and her home is beautiful, this painting will love it's new home! : )
This blog was almost entitled YEAR OF THE SNAKE SSSSSSSUCKSSSSSSS but it sounded really negative and I have nothing against little snakes. They can't help it if my world is being turned upside down and inside out in every which way possible. Some of the stuff I can't go into as it's a delicate matter but let's just say where I am is about to physically change soon and I can elaborate more when things settle however they get settled. I will say it is an absolute shock and kick to the balls if I had any. That being said I've had time to reflect on the weird disappointing actions of another and decided....that's life and that's humans for ya. Change is the one constant in this world and I'm definitely getting a spoonful of that shoved in my mouth. C'est la vie as the French say. Do they say that? I have no idea.
But onward to the positive stuff, I am refusing to let another persons negative actions make me lose focus in a crucial point in time for me. CRUNCH TIME for the gallery showing at WAAS. I have mere weeks to get everything done and a few more canvases to go. Just polished off some work on a dyptych piece that is a collaboration between me and an artist about town who is making waves. Pretty thrilled with how it's coming together and will be debuting this joint work at WAAS Gallery next month. This thing measures a sweet 8 feet by 4 feet! So fun working large again!
All the pieces have been under wraps and I'm shooting for at least 15 works in the show so it's busy time in the hive with no wiggle room for fun right now. 
Last week was insane with me getting a huge wake up call - my darling little firstborn kitty Bell Cat (aka Troll Cat) almost died and had to be rushed to emergency hospital where the vet shook his head at us and said "this is probably not going to turn out well". Well, being the little magical beast she is- a true little warrior- she pulled through and is now back to her rightful position running the house. She has diabetes though and learning to care for her properly has been confusing, scary and exhausting. Giving a cat injections is stressful. :(
Needless to say this has all been very expensive for the girl without much of an income who is dealing with her own health ailments. So selling that painting above has been a true blessing. Have I caught you up on the craziness that is my life? I think so. Hopefully in the next blog I can spill more interesting secrets for you to snicker at over your morning coffee. Until then- appreciate what you have!

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 ...

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 ...

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...
