Read it and Reap


Only those who read this blog will reap the benefits of what I'm about to say here...

As you all know I've been hustling and bustling to get ready for the Sacred David Bowie Art Show that's happening this Saturday. I won't lie and will fess up that I procrastinated a whole month before starting my pieces which led to me finishing them on the ACTUAL DROP DATE! Sometimes I roll like that. Sometimes I need pressure to push me. Under Pressure....doo doo doo dee da dooo dooo...da doo doo doo dee dah doo doo. Sorry. Anyway....as a result I had to turn in my pricing list BEFORE the pieces were even created. This led to three things....
1. I underpriced my light up Bowie piece I worked so hard on and threatened my very sanity
2. I overpriced my other two painted vinyls.
and last but not least....
3. If you read this blog and come up to the show on Saturday wanting either one of the above pieces and say the code word "Aladdin Sane" I will sell them to you for $65 as opposed to the $80 label price. Yep. Yep I will. If you don't read this and want one of the pieces then you'll never know you could have saved yourself some money to go eat at Taco Cabana or buy a martini or whatever.
Today I'm going to figure out my little SQUARE app thingie I got so if you want to pay with your high tech credit card you should be able to. ALSO* If you want a Bowie record in a similar fashion- message me and I can make one for you. You can even tell me what colors you want the background, etc. This is what I'm doing for a living right now so feel free to message me and we'll work within your budget. OK, hopefully see some of you on Saturday! I got a sneak peek at some rad artwork for the show yesterday and the night promises to be really fun!

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
