2015

MC5 painted vinyl record

Let's see if I still know how to write a blog....
It's 2015 now. It's strange to think how little I write here now as opposed to former years. I think I'm finally in the full swing of freelancing and new work and time for blogging just fell by the way side. That and I felt like keeping my thoughts to myself. You no doubt (all 2 of you reading) follow me on Facebook or instagram so there's no point in photo recapping anything, right?
I'm starting the year, again, by doing a real hard look at my health. I think I'm pinpointing some problems and hopefully taking the right steps to cure myself. My diet is getting all shook up but that's a good thing ultimately. I'm slowly weaning myself off coffee again which truly is one of the hardest things to kick. I may be a little grumpy and sick feeling so I'm actively deciding to post less on Facebook for a bit so I don't have regrets of saying foul things followed by a lot of exclamation marks. I've already had friends asking if I'm OK :-) 
Facebook was getting weird for me. I had too many dudes writing to me out of the blue and then some guy sent me a picture of his Wang and that was the last straw. If I'm putting out Facebook pheromones let me know because I thought I was using this thing to be silly, keep up with friends and show you my art. It's really not my fault I have accursed boobs, that being said ...get over it. 
See what I mean about grumpy posts? :-)  
Thinking outside the... circle

I got a new tool to help me start doing some 3d stuff with the vinyl records and really whatever other material I want to explore. Whatever happens this year I want this to be the year of progressing forward with my work.
Round records... Been there done that. I've mastered painting on them now let's see what else is in me. Same for canvas painting, it's time for new ideas. So if you wonder why I'm so quiet I'm over here with my thoughts and ideas, taking care of me for a change.

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...
