The Last Push!

"Las Grutas 2" now on view at Deep Ellum Art Co.

We're almost done with December! But we aren't rushing through it- just trying to savor it and make it count.
I got sideswiped by my old friend PAIN this week and it knocked me into bed for 2 whole days. 😬 Today my resolve is to get back in the studio and get these records done.
But wanted to post about current stuff- the point of today's blog...
Currently on view at DEEP ELLUM ART CO. I have three pieces on view and for sale at Deep Ellum Art Co, the exhibit will be up for 2 weeks so if you have family in town and are wandering around in that neck of the woods or feel like collecting new art for the new year- head over there for the exhibit "Winter Flight".
And Im doing my BIGGEST SALE OF THE YEAR...40% off your purchase in my Shopify shop. Originals and prints!
The one on the bottom SOLD yesterday but the one on top is still available, as well as a few other originals. Use code: HOLIDAY for 40% off your order.
Aside from that Im in the studio painting vinyl records and trying to finish up everyones orders so I can attend to my own holidays/pain, etc. 
It is what it is! Must push through!
Thanks everyone who have kept me busy with work and collected from me this year- all in all its been one of the better years my little business has seen. 🎄❤

So what's the Scenario?

Street Artist 'My Dog Sighs' Paints Faces on Cans Found Littered on the Street I found this interesting art on Pinterest and thought it would be a good example for a proposed scenario.....indulge me if you will.... The scenario is this....this street artist paints on cans. Pretty cool right? Pretty neat! He's probably not the only one who paints on cans in the world but he most likely is the only one in his little neck of the woods and art circle. Ok, let's pretend I invite this CAN painter to be in this big group show we do annually at my gallery. (This is pretend land, I dont have a gallery but roll with me...)  Ok, he is a hit, everyone thinks his can faces are awesome and he's considered pretty unique for doing this medium in our little art circle. Ok fast forward into the future....it's a year later and it's time for our big annual show...here's the scenario....we don't invite the CAN artist to come show again BUT we do hand out a can ...

The Age of Upgrade

BIG BATCH OF HAND PAINTED WAX FOR SAN FRANCISCO I wanted to do a  blog about the upgrade I'm doing and why. Because I am an artist and not a business person I have been lax on so many things I shouldn't have been and caused myself a lot of headaches. This was a year of growing pains for my business and days before my birthday I decided my new age of 39 would be one of grand changes. For starters...I'm typing this on an old Android phone. It's the only equipment I have. My old Mac finally gave up the ghost and I can no longer do any graphic designing in Photoshop or even save files. This will need to be upgraded, I need a computer. Let's talk about vinyl though...I started doing the vinyl about 6 years ago and they were pretty basic novice attempts at painting on vinyl. After many experiments, failures and tons of practice... I have brought them into their own. They started as $30 discs and climbed as I got better. I marked everything DOWN to $50 this year...

Digital Vacation

  Have you looked around and discovered you have filled your life with bad habits? If you said NO- good for you, you might not be human! 😁  I was experiencing a major BLAH and it was all because of ME. What I spent time on, consumed, did and did not do. I also felt like the willpower I used to have in abundance was gone and I wondered if I would ever get it back.  First and foremost I had to look at my main bad habits. What was the very first thing I did every day. EVERY DAY! I reached for my phone, I social media blitzed my brain over two long cups of coffee every morning. I made sure to look at my MEMORIES like it was my job every day. Ruminating on the past and seeing everyone's angry opinions and celebrity/political posts and regurgitated memes ad nauseum....is actually not a very optimistic and healthy way for me to cruise into the day. Not only is this not good for my spirit it wasted almost two hours of every morning. 💀 That's precious time!  I'm weaning mys...
