Mights and Maybes

"Layers and Tiers"
Finished this painting that was abandoned last year when life got busy. It was something I needed to get out of my system so I could move on. I never leave unfinished works hanging around and it irks me to not complete things.

It's in the same palette and theme of "Las Grutas 2" but more of a landscape feel. I may do some smaller versions to complete the family. Undecided right now. I'm going to list these on Saatchi this weekend for interested buyers- as well as my own personal site.

Finished another digital art print, "Pink Moon 3" and as soon as I get my Buddha back I'll be ready to launch the new round of prints!
Ive got some "MIGHTS AND MAYBES" in the works and I've become zen enough to accept if they don't happen for whatever reason and accepting if they do happen (both are work intensive). Maybe a mural in LA and might be doing another side job along with all my current hustling. Whatever happens happens is my current state of mind along with MAKE IT WORK FOR ME. Things need to benefit me these days, I'm pretty much done with the crawling for crumbs lifestyle.
I put beautiful things into the world-that's worth something!
It's Saturday and lots of work to do but Im excited to fit in a girlfriends brunch on Sunday with my friends I hardly see but love dearly.
Make time for the important things- work will always be there.

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...
