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.

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...

Taming the monster

What started as me deciding to spend 30 minutes picking out clothes to donate from my closet .. Turned into about 2 hours of folding t shirts, jeans and deciding winter was far enough away that all sweaters and coats could be packed away. My closet was a walk-in diaster. My cat had lived in it all winter, knocked stuff down, slept on it, fuzzed up clothes and built forts. No lie.  I had been living in the same two pairs of jeans and 5 shirts off my bedroom floor (closet #2 😂). First things first, all the T shirts from OLD JOBS were the first to get put in donation pile. I don't need memories of "that place" and they were all too small, waaay too large or tan/beige/grey ..all the wrong unhappy colors that just say JOB when you look at them. Bye! So that happened yesterday. Major project that still needs work but for now it is peaceful enough to my brain to leave it alone. I have two large loads of laundry to do because my clothes look like...well like a cat has been sleep...

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 ...
