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"!

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...

Ride Your Ride Your Ride

my bike Tuco, named after the Ugly One in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly Lifes little surprises never cease to amaze me. I'm not exactly sure how to tell this story but I will try. A few weeks ago my Mom says she was digging around in an old dresser and found this little funny package. The package was flat and made from beer boxes, cut and taped together and a little over 12" x 12" big. On it was my Dads handwriting stating what was inside. RECORDS! And not just any records but records I had wondered what had happened to because I knew my Dad really liked them....FATS DOMINO! He had taken care and written the names of the records for safe keeping. Now they are mine to cherish.  It was like a little gift from the other side...which sometimes doesn't feel very far away. In fact most days it feels like my Dad is still right here with me. With Fathers Day happening this weekend he has been on my mind more than usual.  So yesterday I was a little surprised to ge...
