Killing June

"Fin and Feather"

Just finished this piece for the COLORIMETRY show at WAAS GALLERY. I have another large canvas to complete then I'm focusing on some small affordables and that will be the last push because....it's almost time! EEK! There's been some great PR on the event so far and I'm waiting for my stress to kick in. Right now I'm in strangely calm zone....for someone who isn't done with her work and has chaos falling in all around her, this is weird. Maybe this is zen? Maybe I have discovered there's nothing I can do any faster or magically and this is what it is and am okay with that? Or maybe I'm in for a delayed freak out any day now? I guess we'll see!
Today I'm ordering printed fabric and starting on the large canvas but since the secrets out on facebook I wanted to post it here too. The collaboration I have been talking about is with renowned graffiti artist SONER and we will be debuting it at the COLORIMTERY show. If you're not familiar with SONER he has some work at the Dallas Contemporary thru August, go check it out! He's also left his mark all over the nation and I was super psyched to get the chance to work with him on canvas.
The other artist I'm exhibiting with is Neil Matthiessen. His work ranges from printed digital pieces to vinyl installations. I'm excited to see this show put together and am feeling really good about this show
I, of course, have some other little nice surprises to show -like what fashion designer am I working with on what amazing little project? So many things you'll have to come to the show and see firsthand! Ok, gotta run and get some painting done. Have a great week!

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...
