Meeting with a Gallery

"The Path of Intuition" acrylic/krylon on canvas 24" x 24" collection of Randy Parker

Just got the High Res in of the lucky painting "The Path of Intuition". I say it's lucky because good things have come about since this painting was born. One- I made a new friend! And the new friend collected this painting and another work (he has amazing taste apparently) and he was so kind hearted he let me borrow it back to enter into a competition that won me a much needed $500! So let's hear it for the lucky bat AND Mr. Randy Parker my kind hearted amigo! While I still have it this piece is going to a meeting with me today. I've been waiting for this meeting for awhile and am curious and excited to see how it will go. It's a meeting with an interested gallery- name undisclosed for now. I have a couple more galleries to look into before I commit to anything but I am on the hunt for the right fit and finally think my work is up to snuff and getting better every day. I'll post about the meeting after things happen. I'm hoping 2013 finds me tied up with the best people looking to help me get my work out there and succeed. For now the hard work is all on me, it's all me baby. 
Directly from the meeting my work has been requested to show at the Kessler Theater! It's right around the block from me so I'm thrilled at the easy trip. Plus Oak Cliff gets to check out one of it's own, born and bred. The totem will also be on view at the Kessler so if you haven't gotten a chance to see it yet-that's where it will be. I'll post about the show when it's hung, maybe there will be a little art party for it?
But I got sidetracked...the high res photo means...PRINT TIME! So expect nice bright prints of this one next. It's actually what I'm going to use my prize money on- making some prints and I ordered some supplies for my biz. More blank record boxes for shipping! I have to thank Sam Bortnick of Sam Bortnick Photography for shooting all my paintings thus far and making them super lovely for me. Things are well at Tigerbee Arts and I feel wanted, loved and collected. Who can complain?
Not me.
Not me.

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...
