Friday is relevant to my interests

"Mad for Merlot" acrylic/krylon on vinyl record $65 for VINO and VINYL at Wine Therapist 9/28

Happy Friday everyone! I'm in the thick of painting records so I'm going to make this short....oh yeah I have a graphic design deadline today too. YIKES! Monday is the deadline to turn in all my artwork for Wine Therapist. YIKES! Tuesday I have a job interview....wait hold the presses, that's right I said job interview. What's funny is how when I post I'm interviewing for a job everyone cheers and high fives and I appreciate that, I really do. But don't you know I'm doing the best job in the world right now painting my heart out and offering my skills up for everyones use? Unfortunately the world doesn't value that as highly as it should. It's not like it was back in Michelangelos day... where if you had artistic skills you were highly sought after and regarded. Artists really are thought of as slackers these days. People WANT you to be working somewhere. Kind of amazing but I digress...so yes, an interview that I only applied for because it was relevant to my interests

I'm sure my friends are just high fiving the prospect of me having more money, right? RIGHT!

I'll post more about the job if I get it, I totally have the mindset that if it's meant to be so be it and if not so be it as well. I am 2 years in to working for myself, just me and my little paintbrushes doing our thing. However I'm also just about out of cash. The job would be part time which is necessary for me to continue working on my art AND it is in the art field which is awesome. So we'll see what happens! In the meantime, work, work, work on paintings and going where your heart takes you.

HAPPY FRIDAY!

Words!

Hello! I haven't blogged since last year. Even writing the word "blog" felt foreign and weird! I have actually been writing stuff on my Patreon account so if you've missed the updates you can sign up for free over there. There is also an option to pay a few dollars a month to help support me as an artist and get "extra" content- in case you are of that mindset and either way- thank you for caring about the art adventures. I have missed blogging actually. I guess I like to make words, string them together like a pretty necklace and let them live their own expressive life wrapped around me. Times are different. Times are weird! But I guess you know that. And also times are the same and as old as time. Is it really more terrible than any other time or are we humans just more "connected" to the propaganda and daily bad trip in a way that is insane and unhealthy? Either way I do my best to keep my sanity and I don't believe about 98% of what I s...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The calm during the storm

Fist Pumps! Cool rainy weather has hit Dallas. Just in time for the opening of the State Fair of Texas and Oktoberfest...which I just happened to be at yesterday by happenstance. Oktoberfest that is, not the Fair. No, I did not have any bier. I did have a fun time walking around between biergartens and weiner dog races in the rain with good company though! I had to drop off my piece "FLOURISH" to a place in McKinney Tx called ORISONS who will be having a gallery walk in a few weeks. There were a lot of people down there for the festivities so they wanted the work to show off to all the traffic. It's been quite a week(end) and I just wanted to pop off a blog to say thanks to everyone who has been supporting by coming to the shows and making purchases and just high fiving me on facebook, etc. THANKS SO MUCH! I've been working my tail off in the studio- that's the part you don't see...but hopefully you can see it in my work when it's done. All the t...
