The final countdown! Dee do dee doo -dee dodeedahdoo!



The countdown is on - 6 days till the Fair and 5 days till setup!
My little stint at The Skyline Agency on Thursday was a good practice run in hauling inventory, set up and socializing. It also gave me insight into what I still need for my booth and to make things easier.

My space for the pop-up was small and all tabletop but I was able to get a lot of matted prints, framed prints and originals in one space along with my info and biz cards. The Fair will have gridwall so I can hang the paintings properly. 

Im thinking I may need to pop off more of these because one is on reserve ALREADY and one of the Big Texs has already been bought!

"Aerial cactus in Plumvision" sold to a collector!

Sold some pieces yesterday to some collector friends of mine! Much appreciated because...its almost rent time and I've been steadily sinking my funds into stuff for the FAIR 😮 so big thank you to my collectors for this end of month push!

"Abandonment 1" also sold to a collector friend!

I have a record commission to finish up then I can work on these brighties. I kinda already like where they are but I have to tinker with them because that is what I do with everything! 😜 
This week is going to be a little mad as I bustle to get my last pieces done for the Fair. I also have to do some major food prepping because as much as I love fair food- I cannot eat it every day. I'm still trying to drop pounds and get my blood pressure safely away from danger numbers. So Im about to clean out the fridge and go shopping and get to CHOPPING! 10am-7pm every day is no joke and I will not feel like cooking when I get home. I forsee lots of bento style boxes in my fridge/freezer and putting the crockpot to work for dinners. Menu planning-another thing on my to do list.

I had to revise my pricelist because someone who hates math forgot to factor in the percentage the Fair gets from my earnings. 😜 So a few bucks more than what was listed but not much and definitely still affordable. Oh gosh-so much to do but trying to remember this is my last period of rest before a really hard grind so-not killing myself and trying to have fun. ☺
Hope everyone has the best weekend!

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...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...

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...
