Week of MEH!

Its kind of been a busy week but it also feels like I wasn't really here.
It happens- you have the best intentions...you're going to do all these projects and get stuff done....and then...that restless aimless feeling happens.
That was me this week. Started out full throttle on Monday and then it was like my brain had a flat tire. It didn't want to do anything. It wanted to sleep.
So I gave myself room to sleep. I let myself wander in and out of rooms "wanting"to do things but saying MEH. I let myself just be. I figure something internal was tired of my busy bee bullshit and needed to rebel a bit.
Its annoying as a super productive person to get like this but there's also not much you can do but go with the flow.
In actuality I did accomplish some things. Like that little video up there.
I added a new app to my arsenal and watched some tutorials on how to use it. KineMaster was compatible with my phone and fairly easy to use. My phone doesn't have a lot of space so videos need to be deleted after uploading but there it is...my first KineMaster video for Instagram. Videos have become very imperative for social media and I am all about the EASIEST LESS TIME CONSUMING way to get something up please!
Also I completed that little meditative painting...
...and I've been invited to participate in a pop up art event next month in the Design District so I can't say MEH anymore...I have work to do.
I'll have two tabletops to fill with small works and prints. The fire has been lit.
Good thing I got my naps out of my system! I'll post more as I get more info about it.
So the weekend is busy, record commissions and doing sketches for a client's custom footwear...and more small painting.

I also started an IG account for my active boy Tuco...because he's cute and it's funny. My other cats will make appearances here and there but he is the ham of the family. You can follow his adventures as a studio cat @tucothestudiocat
Up early about to do all the things and work out-my blood pressure has been great lately. I made a gluten free peach crisp and was naughty and had to have vanilla ice cream with it last night. 😳 So its payback time at the gym. Juggling health, work, personal art career and cats...maybe Im more productive than I give myself credit for! 😛😂 
Have a great Caturday!

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Down Time

work in progress, my first MUNNY It's been a whirlwind of cleaning, organizing and getting ready for the holidays. There are now small signs of Christmas here, a wreath on the door, the tiny tree is up and garland is flocking the doorway. I sent out some Christmas cards and bought the Christmas ham to share with my family. I guess I need to find a pie though, absolutely forgot about that. Some friends are coming over tonight so I'm making my studio presentable for whoever would like to see it....it's a dining room, don't expect some cool amazing room filled with cool amazing things. In fact almost all my art is NOT EVEN HERE. And actually the get together is being held next door at my friend and landlords place so I don't have to break my back trying to be the hostess with the mostest awesome house. I'm an artist with 3 cats and too much stuff, it's never gonna be pretty. But I digress, this blog is about that creepy looking head up there.... I need...

2026 Petty Edition

 I just missed blogging here. On Patreon it's always a focused point and hits people's mailboxes directly and I feel like I might be bothering them  This is more Dear Diary let me dump my brain out here.  It's 2026 and I am on point and focused on a goal. I'm a harpoon heading for my mark and I've already done the hard part of getting accepted into my goal- The Other Art Fair . If you know me you know I have put in the time, the hours, weeks, months and years. I've sacrificed everything and stripped away everything stoically to the barest essentials to be an artist.  Lost social scenes, Fair weather friends and missed out on experiences. Some of that is alright. Some of that is painful. I can definitely only keep friends who understand I am that weird friend you hardly see who is walking a monks path to my destination. I have a dream and purpose and lots of people do not. I am aware of my time here and my gift to use and some people think time is endless and...
