Weekend Warrior

A ZOOMED IN CLOSEUP of a new painted record...SHHHH!

A friend of mine has been giving me hell about showing all my pieces online before the show so the rest will be zipped up tight and you'll have to come to the show to see them.  I think these would make fun prints so I'm going to try and shoot them as best as I can and see if I can have some made at some point. It would be really cool to turn them into little coasters or faux wine labels.
Oh the ideas in my head are endless!
This is Saturday- what some of you call the weekend but what I call...Saturday, another day to paint. I'm going to try to fit some fun into the weekend somewhere though. I need the exercise. I've been in my studio just about non stop- although I did hit up the Vinyl Thoughts toy show on Thursday evening to see some friends cool creations. Here are a  few shots

The Etch a Sketch Dr. Doom and Viewfinder Cyclops were made by Artbot 138, I think you've heard me give him props here before. Also my friend Ghetto Axe had some pieces in the show but my phone was running out of juice and I didn't get a shot. Check out his fb page!
Yesterday I got my acceptance letter into the 3 x 3 show! I'm psyched to see all the tiny creations and show my little doodle bugs. I hope you can make it out to the show if you're in the area
I know you can't read that tiny print but it pretty much says this is a super badass little show of little works and you should come see it. HA! Here's the facebook event invite!
Ok seriously, so much to do and it all involves paint, paintbrushes, water, flicking water off brushes, sitting hunched over in spine tingling positions for long hours with my tongue sticking out and other such fun so away I go....have a great "weekend"!

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...

Taming the monster

What started as me deciding to spend 30 minutes picking out clothes to donate from my closet .. Turned into about 2 hours of folding t shirts, jeans and deciding winter was far enough away that all sweaters and coats could be packed away. My closet was a walk-in diaster. My cat had lived in it all winter, knocked stuff down, slept on it, fuzzed up clothes and built forts. No lie.  I had been living in the same two pairs of jeans and 5 shirts off my bedroom floor (closet #2 😂). First things first, all the T shirts from OLD JOBS were the first to get put in donation pile. I don't need memories of "that place" and they were all too small, waaay too large or tan/beige/grey ..all the wrong unhappy colors that just say JOB when you look at them. Bye! So that happened yesterday. Major project that still needs work but for now it is peaceful enough to my brain to leave it alone. I have two large loads of laundry to do because my clothes look like...well like a cat has been sleep...

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...
