Super Wolf Moon

"Under False Moons" just sold to a collector!
I was for certain this one was going on my wall for a bit but it actually sold the week it was listed and on the day of the Super Wolf Moon. I couldn't be more thrilled. I love when my art finds it's "person" and when I can run the transaction without any help from a gallery or third party. That's powerful and makes me feel like EH WHO NEEDS THEM ANYWAY? There have been FEW who have connected me to collectors but the ones who have I dearly appreciate. I write to art agents only to be ignored. Real art snobby! But that's ok because THEIR LOSS 😂😂😂
Maybe its just supposed to be me dealing the cards and playing the game and winning all the hands. Maybe the old idea that someone could help me is just that...an old idea.
So Little Red Hen once again or LONE WOLF more appropriately. You learn to make it work for you.
So now its sold and that means KEEP PAINTING. Your stuff is wanted. You have it. Run with it. Do it. Every day. Don't stop. I'm totally in PRODUCE mode and its a great place to be.
Busy day doing...WORK, duh. Cold front finally rolled in and there's bread to start and everything to work on.
Hope everyone has a cozy, creative weekend.

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...

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...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
