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!

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 ...

Year of the Dragon

  First off, Happy New Year to my blog readers! Not sure if I actually have blog readers but if I do- I wish you well! We are coming up on the Chinese Lunar New Year and it's Year of the Dragon! I jumped into the year at a crazy pace and really need to pace myself for ALL THE THINGS I'm trying to accomplish. First off it was very important to me to launch a couple things and explore some other platforms. Those being: Tiktok, Patreon and YouTube I'll go on to say that I actually did not want to do any of these. I repeat DID NOT WANT TO DO THESE.  *Didn't think I was worthy for people to pay me on Patreon and also thought creating perks for people monthly was a lot of work. So far ...IT IS A LOT OF WORK....but I am new and growing from the ground up and that's how it is. Growing pains! I'm working to learn and streamline this so it goes hand in hand with... *YouTube channel! Who actually does not enjoy seeing my weird face and voice in a video? Hi. ME. I really di...

The Age of Upgrade

BIG BATCH OF HAND PAINTED WAX FOR SAN FRANCISCO I wanted to do a  blog about the upgrade I'm doing and why. Because I am an artist and not a business person I have been lax on so many things I shouldn't have been and caused myself a lot of headaches. This was a year of growing pains for my business and days before my birthday I decided my new age of 39 would be one of grand changes. For starters...I'm typing this on an old Android phone. It's the only equipment I have. My old Mac finally gave up the ghost and I can no longer do any graphic designing in Photoshop or even save files. This will need to be upgraded, I need a computer. Let's talk about vinyl though...I started doing the vinyl about 6 years ago and they were pretty basic novice attempts at painting on vinyl. After many experiments, failures and tons of practice... I have brought them into their own. They started as $30 discs and climbed as I got better. I marked everything DOWN to $50 this year...
