Good vibrations

Finally off work and have 5 days to be selfish! If you consider painting, organizing the fridge and entryway selfish. 😂
I'm actually excited to tackle these TO DOs on my list because I'm getting addicted to crossing them off when they're accomplished
I'm one of those weirdo types who can't start painting in my studio unless the dishes have been done and there's not a mess waiting to be tackled. So mindful cleaning and slowly putting my house in order has been good for me and my creativity. So far the washroom ( in my photo up there) has been done-and turned into my inspiring greenhouse. The kitchen got sorted (still need to do pantry and fridge), my dining room got a little refresh since that's where I like to practice my stretches and meditation with cats. The living room got refreshed and my studio is also basically clean (but could use a proper shelving system). And the bathroom was my latest victory and makes me happy to see it. Hell, if I have to spend half the day washing my hands because of viruses it better be in a nice clean bathroom 😂
Bedroom and closet are last on my list and not for this holiday weekend. It's time to paint and I cannot wait!
Also hoping the ground gets dry enough to play some disc golf but not complaining about the rain. It's a welcome friend in the midst of this dirty air, humid heat summer thing that's going on.
Not doing anything for the 4th but would like a safe visit with my mom. Haven't seen her much through this whole pandemic jazz.
I really needed this time to reset my space from the last few terrible months of illness, virus, death memories and put some positive, healthy, good spirit vibes and living plants in my space.  Now to put some life renewing art vibrations into my house again.
Have a happy 4th of July weekend and celebrate safely 🌞❤️

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...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The New Way

Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space: All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space. Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists. These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls.   These look great together- I hope whoever eventually buys them is able to get both of them. Its a fun horizontal/vertical juxtaposition. The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible! Ther...
