Weeding and Pricing

 

"Emergence 1"

My first painting of the new year is finished and titled. This week I will take it to be scanned for high res photos and printing. I'm restructuring my whole business this year and weeding out things that don't work for me. That's going to include the small prints. I'm hoping my supporters will just buy the next size up since they aren't that much more. It saves me time and hassle for little payoff. The new prints from here on out will be LIMITED EDITION prints on high quality Rives paper. Real fine art prints that will look stunning in frames. 
I'm also weeding out a lot of stuff on social media and getting very business minded about my time on there. If entities aren't following me back or art related in some way they are distracting up my feed on my @galleryrodriguez page. That page is strictly art biz. I have so much to do to get things sorted out, my website back up and online shops integrated - forgive me if I'm not as chatty as usual for awhile. I'm overwhelmed. 😳 
Along with restructuring comes price restructuring. If eggs are higher and my rent is higher... Guess what? So is the art. This big 36" x 36" canvas original is $2000 and worth every penny. I dare you to walk by it and not turn to look at it, feel uplifted and happier. 😉 But I'm also able to do payment plans for interested collectors and this is how that works...
Contact me if interested and we will agree on a plan and schedule that works for your budget. There will be an upfront price to pay (no lower than $500) and we can work out a monthly payment for you. The art stays with me until payment is completed and I'm free to show it in shows, galleries, publications, etc. This all increases the worth of your future piece. So don't be afraid to collect art- it's really not impossible or far fetched. My pieces will also be available as nice giclees- prints on canvas... So if you love one that sold out /really can't afford the original that's another great option. 
Here's to 2023 being an upgrade year with lots of fantastic art. ♥️

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...

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...

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...
