Bunker Life!

"Las Grutas" mixed media on canvas (Proulx Collection)

How to get everything done that needs to get done? Well in my case you wake up at 3 am sometimes. Also you have to BUNKER in!
So after quite a few social engagements- more than Im used to all stacked up on top of each other...its time to zip myself up in my tent and get some work done.
Today in particular I'm working for many people. I do payroll for one client, working on a painting for a collector and doing a digital/watercolor mockup for a wall I may be doing in Houston. So hello 3 am and hello coffee!
Everything must get done and done by me. My own projects rest by the wayside, waiting patiently...
Mixed media wall sculptures in progress

I have some paintings to put in the shop and some new prints coming soon. My plan is for a Fall open studio and I've been steadily planning since I moved into my new studio/house on making it happen. Little by little it's falling into place.
Point of this blog- new stuff coming soon, super busy with work and fall open studio if I get a chance to breathe. Its a busy life but I love it. 

*I'll update when new prints/ work goes into my Shopify. Browse the current collection here: https://tigerbee-arts.myshopify.com

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The New Way

Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space: All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space. Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists. These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls.   These look great together- I hope whoever eventually buys them is able to get both of them. Its a fun horizontal/vertical juxtaposition. The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible! Ther...

One thing leads to another

Sometimes it just takes one little action to get things rolling in the right direction. For me the action was ordering a giant roll of bubble wrap I didn't even have space for and when it arrived I had to figure out where it would live because my cats were already trying to hug it with their teeth and sharp little claws.  Also, why bubble wrap? What for?  I'm a big believer in taking some sort of action, big or small to make yourself move in a certain direction. I also believe in productive manifesting and the bubble wrap symbolized shipping. Shipping art out. Shipping lots of art out. Shipping out so much art I was justified in living with a big roll of bubble wrap for awhile!  So step one: order the bubble wrap and step two was the fun task of... Making a place for it to live. So manifesting was already happening and I decided I needed a designated area for shipping supplies and hell.. My printer needed a proper home too. I had a very messy shelf with an old printer on ...
