Wow, July has been something else!

Neil Matthiessen and I at the Colorimetry show on view thru Aug 9

August is already here and it came in on Julys last hot dying breath. Temps in the 100's daily! This month will see me closing out my two shows that are up right now.
The first one to close is COLORIMETRY at WAAS GALLERY, it closes AUGUST 9. Have you seen it yet? I'm pretty proud of the show and the lovely space it's in right now.
Please go see it before it's gone! 
The next show to close will be ORGANUM at Baylor Health Sciences Library, it closes August 30. You have plenty of time to go check it out :)
There are still lots of pieces for sale from both exhibits

Looks like I have more freelance work coming my way (which I sorely need) and am spending the next few days creating another painting for a special private party I've been invited to be the feature artist at. Latino Leaders Magazine asked me to show a few pieces this week at a nice little spot in the Design District. They came out and did a photo shoot last week while I worked on the Mary Kay project- the worlds largest art work made solely of makeup! The Guinness Book of World Records people come out on Tuesday to officiate and that will be the final party for it. It's been such a great and positive project and I got to work with the most amazing people and made new friends! : ) Big thanks to Latino Leaders and Sara Pintilie for the beautiful photos!
We've all been on the news and had our pictures taken by the paper, hundreds of women (and fellas too) praised us and cheered us daily. Could there be a more fun project? NOPE!

My newest interview was published in Mercado Bilingue, in this issue I interviewed graffiti artist SONER. And go see our collaboration at WAAS Gallery before it comes down! Check out the article here!
"Intuition and Radar" collaborative piece with SONER and Patricia Rodriguez, a sweet fan shows you how LARGE this piece is 

I've been a busy, busy bee and don't see me stopping any time soon. Todays looking like a beautiful Sunday and theres a canvas waiting for me in the studio. Enjoy the day!

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...
