Back in Black

A mural work in progress

Had to halt work in my studio for a hot minute to do some real world pay-the-rent kind of work. But as far as that kind of work goes it's a dream, pays very well, allowed me to design it and will be part of a live painting event for a lucrative set of people. If anything it will be fun and I'll have added another mural to my repertoire and hopefully make some connections, which usually happens. I was lucky to befriend an awesome artist who has the rare trait of trying to share the good fortune and work instead of secretly hoarding and being stingy like..., way too many Artists. I'm blessed to know the dude but I'll give him shout outs after the event since it's kinda mysterious right now about who the event is for.
The mural will be finished at said event LIVE, so the guests can enjoy seeing the completion.
But today it's back in the studio for me so I can work on my own show for the Kirk Hopper gallery. The tally is now: 3 collaborations done, 6 personal works complete. 1 collaboration left to finish, 4 personal works left to finish and jumping into a 3d piece if time still allows. It's crunch time with exactly one month left till the show.
I really can't wait to see all our work in one room. I'm really such a fan of SONERs work and think our colors are going to radiate in this show.
So that's a peek into my world, a lot of painting, switching gears, keeping my eyes on the calendar and doing my best to do my best.
Press release should go out soon so heads up on more about the show!

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...

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...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...
