Fine Art America and ch-ch-changes!

Shot of studio wall
"Butterscotch Moon" (featured) will be going live on the site today for interested collectors!

Up WAY too early but have a busy day and need to get stuff knocked out so first things first: ANNOUNCEMENT!
I have teamed up with Fine Art America and am now offering canvas prints and home goods,etc on MY SITE.

That means if you wanted a Buddha on canvas as a print- you can order that on my Shopify and they will dropship to you all PURDY and ready to hang! They even have options to pick your side borders and glossy or matte finishes. Easy peasy! Saves me a lot of work and keeps some dollars in my pocket.
As much as I'd like to do everything myself- I NEED TO BE PAINTING IN MY STUDIO instead of running back and forth from printer to post office.

I really like the pouches and the yoga mat! So if your walls are already full you can opt for "other things" and there's even throw pillows (not shown).

I wanted to clarify that soon my prints on paper (Healing Spaces) will also be getting dropshipped. Those will NOT BE HAND SIGNED AND NUMBERED. So the ones I'm offering now are special, collector edition and limited.

Im trying to streamline everything and MAKE IT WORK FOR ME ❤

This company is great and you can even choose your own papers, frames, finishes,etc. I wanted to make sure my people had options and quality. Thanks for collecting-you keep me creating with a roof over my head.

Busy day doing ALL THE THINGS to make rent $ appear- have a great day!

Need "Butterscotch Moon" in your life? Need to do warrior pose with Buddha? Need to see all the new stuff in my collection? Clicky click my SHOPIFY, CODES RUN OUT THIS WEEKEND! 😲💋

Jim Rockford was keeping me broke

Ah Rockford files, a comfortable and silly way to unwind after work. Yes, I am completely aware that I've turned into my Dad and watching Dad shows totally cements that theory. I had to start looking at the handsome James Garner in a new light though... He was a rich and famous star in his time and every evening spent curled up watching Rockford Files was an evening a painting wasn't getting worked on. No painting, no art show material. No painting, no galleries. No painting, no money. Would James Garner be watching TV every evening in a tired drowsy ball and not getting stuff done? Probably not. So I pulled myself away from TV land in the evenings and devoted at least a little time in the mornings as well. Even if it's just ten minutes. Even if you are just filling in all the blacks, blues or whatever... It is progress. Something is better than nothing. I'm proud to say this little habit tweak has totally kicked my butt into gear and I'm producing at a rate I'

How I had the best art year

This was the year I got rejection letters from every open call I applied to. Granted, it wasn't very many I applied to because I am very picky about what I sign up for AND I am also very jaded about these things of late. However, this was my best art year to date and I kinda love that it was all rejection notices this year and I STILL HAD THE BEST ART YEAR EVER. Takeaway: Today's open calls are very "agenda based" and the jurors they choose to judge have their agendas. Some want more millennials and younger artists and shun the older artists, some want you to tackle race, gender identity, politics, feminist, pro this or that.... And my art does not. I'm going to stick by my "Nature is more important than most bullshit" stance till I die because the very atom of life and Nature is more important in my eyes than most of the stuff humans do to feel more important than another group. But I digress! I did not get into the velvet rope clubs and it was gre

The Backstory- cliff notes edition

Skip navigation little backstory I was totally working for myself as an artist and you know what? It was HARD! Harder than hard and harder than any job ever. But it was the most rewarding experience and I learned so much about so many things and I want to share that knowledge with you guys... My VIP art club. I didn't get a fair shake from the very beginning of my art career. I suffered a back injury at my "muggle" job which required a lot of physical therapy to get over and which I will have with me forever now. It was actually the impetus for me to quit my job and start being an artist! So I turned my bad luck into fuel for my fire. I saved 5k (painstakingly while enduring all the BS at a terrible job) and then I made the leap. I was so excited and optimistic about working for myself! I had sold little pieces here and there and was sure it was only upwards from there. 2 weeks into my freedom- my Dad died unexpectedly. What came next was indescribable DEPRESSION and a
