Avalanche!

I am that girl you will want to slap for not putting cd's away in their cases. 

Whilst cleaning (more like sweeping and finding places to hide things inconspicuously) I discovered that probably 80% of my space is overtaken by a zillion cd's, crates and boxes and shelves of records and a bazillion books. So nice of me to work so hard to keep a roof over these inanimate things and not have room to paint hardly. Aren't I so kind?
I have a bad habit of being way too busy to do much in the way of domestic upkeep and the mountain of things has grown....not hoarders style mind you- but not pretty either. NOT PRETTY AT ALL! So i am enacting a plan, every day at least 3 useless things gets put where it will be used by someone else or to the trash if its trash. Like really, why am I holding on to the "bug catching cup" from Taco Cabana? To catch bugs obviously. 
Last week my "closet" ( a tiny narrow sliver that must have been where a water heater once was because NO ONE can get into this weirdly designed thing) collapsed under the weight of vintage dresses that I hardly ever wear. Oh Spring Cleaning, how I hate thee....mainly because I don't have time for thee. So, trying to get it together in my little nest while juggling everything else. Its Friday and the interview will be happening RIGHT after work. My studio is what it is. An Artists Studio. Boxes of this and that and tins of tools and glasses holding brushes and things stacked on shelves and no surface space and.....breathe....it makes sense to me. Sorta.
Happy Friday have a great weekend!

Digital Vacation

  Have you looked around and discovered you have filled your life with bad habits? If you said NO- good for you, you might not be human! 😁  I was experiencing a major BLAH and it was all because of ME. What I spent time on, consumed, did and did not do. I also felt like the willpower I used to have in abundance was gone and I wondered if I would ever get it back.  First and foremost I had to look at my main bad habits. What was the very first thing I did every day. EVERY DAY! I reached for my phone, I social media blitzed my brain over two long cups of coffee every morning. I made sure to look at my MEMORIES like it was my job every day. Ruminating on the past and seeing everyone's angry opinions and celebrity/political posts and regurgitated memes ad nauseum....is actually not a very optimistic and healthy way for me to cruise into the day. Not only is this not good for my spirit it wasted almost two hours of every morning. 💀 That's precious time!  I'm weaning mys...

So what's the Scenario?

Street Artist 'My Dog Sighs' Paints Faces on Cans Found Littered on the Street I found this interesting art on Pinterest and thought it would be a good example for a proposed scenario.....indulge me if you will.... The scenario is this....this street artist paints on cans. Pretty cool right? Pretty neat! He's probably not the only one who paints on cans in the world but he most likely is the only one in his little neck of the woods and art circle. Ok, let's pretend I invite this CAN painter to be in this big group show we do annually at my gallery. (This is pretend land, I dont have a gallery but roll with me...)  Ok, he is a hit, everyone thinks his can faces are awesome and he's considered pretty unique for doing this medium in our little art circle. Ok fast forward into the future....it's a year later and it's time for our big annual show...here's the scenario....we don't invite the CAN artist to come show again BUT we do hand out a can ...

Top 10 Reasons

  Have you seen Labyrinth? The scene where she finally realizes she had the power all along and that actually Gareth did not ...that's powerful stuff. My favorite part....aside from every scene with David Bowie prancing about in too tight leggings. 😁 My digital vacation got interrupted yesterday. I've still been checking my messages in Messenger because HI IM AN ART BUSINESS AND THAT DONT STOP. I was alerted that the scammer had hit up a mutual friend and because I was trying to be Art Spiderman I went swinging back online to see what was going on. Unfortunately the scammer got someone and I had to make another PSA about it to help my peeps understand what was going on. Barring that though... it's up to YOU to be SMART PROACTIVE RESEARCHING humanoids. I can't save you.  Also my brief pop into fakebook gave me enough fodder to want to keep my vacation going. Here's what I was met with on messenger and on my page upon landing:  1. People pushing politics/celebrities ...
