Hot Dates

Monterrey Daydream # 2 and #1 acrylic/krylon on canvas 24" x 24" ea

I've just completed the 2nd canvas (on left) and it's on to the 3rd canvas I'll be entering into LuminArte Gallerys exhibit ARTE LATINO. Which brings me to the title of my blog, I have SOLID DATES on all these shows I'm booked up with. Got your calendars ready?
March 9- April 6 "ARTE LATINO" An exhibition of artists from Latin America at LuminArte Gallery
May 31-Aug 30 "Organum" SOLO SHOW at Baylor Health Sciences Library 
July 11-Aug 9 joint show at WAAS Gallery with artist Neil Matthiessen details TBA

I've been invited to a couple other things but it's all depending on how much I can complete without losing my mind. As much as I'd like to take ALL the candy I have to be realistic and not kill myself. 
I'm also not married to my paintings as you see them photographed. It is quite possible I will just start painting stuff all over them so they could be quite different by the time you see them. I have to keep growing and developing, learning and experimenting. Today I start the new canvas and get contracts signed and sent over, artists statements and bios and all that jazz are requested and my upcoming Composite Arts Magazine stuff needs to be turned in. In the middle of all that I need to get stuff ready for tomorrows DJ gig
A little dancing break in a sea of work!
And tomorrow if you're out on the town and want to collect some affordable art- Kettle Art Gallery is having a For The Love of Artists show. All the artists who donated their work to help Kettle have been invited to show... and all proceeds from this go straight to the artist. Check this link for all the info! I have two small pieces up for grabs. It's also the last day to see my records at Texas Theater before I bring em home and list em on Etsy!

And then come dance with me- it's FREE and you're not gonna see me for awhile!
Have a great weekend!

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...
