Prince vs Prints

The Prints are here! The Prints are here!

Both make me feel like dancing. Tonight we're gonna party like it's 19  ninety nine!

I was super psyched to get my prints in yesterday and headed right away to pick up a few frames. I was thinking small and that people would probably want the prints as cheap as possible and NOT want frames but the framed ones sold like hot cakes within 2 hours of posting so I had to go hunt down more frames. That was a task and it's still a learning process for me -pricing and finding things affordably so I can offer them affordably and still make my money back I put in plus a tiny profit.
At any rate the framed pieces (I have a few more left now) are priced at $32 (does not include shipping) and the unframed prints are $22. These are limited edition, numbered and signed, printed in full color on glossy card stock. If you message me I'll send you paypal info, etc. Quite a few of these have sold already and I haven't even put them on my site yet! GIGGITY!
I also sold a set of 10 buttons. have I showed you buttons yet? Let's look at buttons...
My friend ARTBOT 138 made these for me for kicks and also as part of a little barter. I bartered a BATTLE BONES I found by the side of the road to him in exchange for these little promos. The idea was to give one out with a record purchase but as soon as I posted them on facebook the LIKE-O-METER went up and I was asked how much, etc, etc. ARTBOT 138 noticed this and said I could use his nifty button maker to make myself a batch so I can offer them up for sale. 50 cents is the bank breaking price on one. The designs are from my records and paintings so it's like you can wear a little piece of my art or give them to a friend or throw them at people or whatever you wanna do with them. More will be made SOON! But in the meantime...I have some framing and signing to do and...Piyo. And thinking of my next blog about ART PLUNGING which as you can see by this blog sometimes leads you into the wonderful world of button making and listening to Prince. A nice endeavor if I do say so myself! Big thanks to everyone who has purchased prints, buttons, records, paintings, etc...you guys rock and are awesome supporters! Love, love, love to you!

How I had the best art year

  This was the year I got rejection letters from every open call I applied to. Granted, it wasn't very many I applied to because I am very picky about what I sign up for AND I am also very jaded about these things of late.  However, this was my best art year to date and I kinda love that it was all rejection notices this year and I STILL HAD THE BEST ART YEAR EVER. Takeaway: Today's open calls are very "agenda based" and the jurors they choose to judge have their agendas. Some want more millennials and younger artists and shun the older artists, some want you to tackle race, gender identity, politics, feminist, pro this or that.... And my art does not. I'm going to stick by  my "Nature is more important than most bullshit" stance till I die because the very atom of life and Nature is more important in my eyes than most of the stuff humans do to feel more important than another group.  But I digress! I did not get into the velvet rope clubs and it was gre

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
