Honey, SAD and Finding the Light

Facebook is down for a bit and...Im ok with that. It's reminding me of how nice it is when it's out of my life. Ha ha!
Just a quickie blog while I sit here with raw honey on my face- its a lovely and easy facial without ANYTHING weird. Just bee goodness. 🐝
Launched prints yesterday and have alot of stuff to do to sync my SHOP up with some art products. I'm dedicated to getting my business to WORK FOR ME but there's SO MUCH TO DO AND LEARN! The first and primary thing is: MAKE THE WORK

So not getting too bogged down with computer stuff right now- I have to create, make the work and produce.
This was a weird week of starting a diet and killing it in the same sentence. I cant tolerate headaches. Im not doing it right. But my DIM came in and I'm starting it today.
Take 2! No beating yourself up just jump back in there. I also did not see my gym all week. Next week I'll be back to punching. Right now I'm being honest with myself and I just want to be home-creating and not having headaches because I'm depriving myself of coffee and food. 😒
It's Friday and GREY and Im fighting Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and I want the sun back but it is what it is.
It's Reggae time and paint time and finding the light that's there somewhere.
Have a great Friday! Prints can be found here: https://tigerbee-arts.myshopify.com
I'll talk more about the beautiful paper its on next time and also how these are LIMITED EDITION signed prints and won't be offered forever so get them while you can 💋

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...

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...
