"Entanglement"

I'm up early getting ready for another doctors appointment. Thought I'd drop a quickie blog and catch up with everything. My sickie time came but luckily it didn't get so bad this time. I was all packed to go to the hospital but so far everything is staying down in my stomach where I put it. I have been having to take hydrocodone to keep the pain in check though- this sucks to me, it's hard to work and be productive when you feel kinda dizzy and out of it.
Nonetheless I did manage to finish THAT painting up there before I got ill. Started a new painting yesterday and will just keep moving forward. Time is ticking- soon it will be time for my art opening at Baylor Health Sciences Library on May 31!
Yesterday I got more injections for a job I'm going to be doing at Dallas Childrens Medical Center. I'm working on a mural with a friend and it will all have to be done at night so I'll have to switch my whole sleeping schedule and be a night owl. Doesn't that sound fun kids? Harumph- the things freelance artists have to do to put bacon on the table. I've had four immunizations just to make sure the wall I'm painting doesn't catch measles or mumps from me! HA!
I have so many paintings to create that I do not have time for not feeling well so positive thinking and pushing through it, hopefully whatever monster is inside me is either shrinking or dying or at least going away. And that's what's up with me. Painting, pain pills and getting poked.
Have a nice week everyone!

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...
