Serpentine Seductions

work in progress....

2013 is the Year of The Snake, I had to put a little reminder in this painting to mark the occasion. I have sooo much work to do on this painting that I shouldn't even think about it and should just DO IT. It's going to be a nose to the grindstone kind of week, especially since I took the day off yesterday from painting. The weather was gorgeous and I was seduced by my bike and the sunshine. I also fit in friend time and saw some live rock n roll, it was a great weekend! I've been feeling under the weather and still fighting with my immune system and a lingering cough. I may end up going to a doctor by weeks end if I don't see a resolution...I'm kinda thinking theres some pneumonia hanging out in my lungs. :/

Finally got all the art to my wonderful collector Randy Parker (hi Randy!) and got to see it in it's new home, made me so happy!

I love that these went into a bedroom as a lot of the imagery initially came from my dreams. I wonder if these will influence some wonderful color soaked dreams too?

I was asked how would one collect a piece of my work so I will answer to everyone in general- it's really as simple as sending me a message and asking if it's available. If it is I will tell you the price and I even do payment plans. Sometimes my work is at a gallery and you can purchase through there, sometimes it's at my house and you can purchase through me. Until I "sign" with a gallery that is how you can get a piece. : ) I'm on a tricky road right now- creating pieces for my big show and creating pieces I should sell ASAP to pay the rent. I want the quality to remain the same and I don't want to crank something out on the quick, not my style....everyone deserves my utmost best. Maybe making some smaller pieces is the way to fund my major works? Maybe I'm over thinking things.

Maybe I just need to shut up and get to work! Most likely! :D

Off to play with snakes and bats and other things girls think are icky!

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...

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...
