The Path of Attraction... and things becoming REALZ

"The Path of Attraction" acrylic/krylon on canvas 24" x 24"

My newest piece was finally revealed last night at Kettle Art Gallery in Deep Ellum. This along with my two NATURE GRAFF pieces and some small 12" x 12"s  and that should give people a taste of what I'm up to right now.  The show was great and I got to show with a few of my peeps like Brian Hamm and Micheal Broussard. Both talented local artists you should check their work out. The show will be up this month so trek down and see it!


Today I get my works back from Kessler and try to figure out where to put the musical totem again. I spent the past 3 days revamping my studio. SERIOUSLY. 3 DAYS!!! It's not a very big room but man oh man was it a MESS! I couldn't even work on anything until I had it sorted out because my brain wouldn't wrap itself around anything in that clutter. So I'm pleased to say ITS DONE! My studio is fresh and organized! 
Don't tell my cats I added a PLANT when they weren't looking! Tiny painting by BlueSkySunburn

Books + Spray Paint+ CDs +Bear on Wood by Nix Johnson
Loved this New Year card my sis sent me, Munny Box+ shipping supplies+ fancy pussycats+mushroom lights
where every day starts! my band got to open for Fugazi back in the day so that print is one of my prized posessions, reminder I'm a bass player, I'm a bass player......
OMG what is that? That weird organizational tool called a Calendar (thanks sis!) is going to be implemented this year! Hell yeah it's all fancy CUPCAKES! Balance that sweet fat stuff with my running number to remind me to get my butt out there and RUN! Other artists in my studio get some love: Robert Hold Photography, ARTBOT138 and Diablo Texas.
Organizized! Canvases stacked, glues and adhesives put in one spot and cd crates got turned into stacking mini shelves to hold all my little tools of the trade.
A discontinued heater serves a new purpose, my plant and brush holder, unicorn harborer and displayer of my Dads quote...."ENJOY THE LIFE"
Thanks for taking a little trip through my studio!
So now if you have a calendar pull out your red pen because I finally have a date on my big summer show!!! JULY 11-AUG 9, 2013 the details need to be fleshed out but expect all new work from me at a wonderful gallery here in Dallas called WAAS GALLERY
I have about 6 months to make a lot of awesome and I'm going to be super busy getting this all together. How exciting! Theres other amazing stuff happening as well but I'll wait till I see green lights before I start blabbing but it involves my work flying out of Big D and to another major city but hush hush keep it down now and all that jazz.
Have a great 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...

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...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
