The Last Push!

"Las Grutas 2" now on view at Deep Ellum Art Co.

We're almost done with December! But we aren't rushing through it- just trying to savor it and make it count.
I got sideswiped by my old friend PAIN this week and it knocked me into bed for 2 whole days. 😬 Today my resolve is to get back in the studio and get these records done.
But wanted to post about current stuff- the point of today's blog...
Currently on view at DEEP ELLUM ART CO. I have three pieces on view and for sale at Deep Ellum Art Co, the exhibit will be up for 2 weeks so if you have family in town and are wandering around in that neck of the woods or feel like collecting new art for the new year- head over there for the exhibit "Winter Flight".
And Im doing my BIGGEST SALE OF THE YEAR...40% off your purchase in my Shopify shop. Originals and prints!
The one on the bottom SOLD yesterday but the one on top is still available, as well as a few other originals. Use code: HOLIDAY for 40% off your order.
Aside from that Im in the studio painting vinyl records and trying to finish up everyones orders so I can attend to my own holidays/pain, etc. 
It is what it is! Must push through!
Thanks everyone who have kept me busy with work and collected from me this year- all in all its been one of the better years my little business has seen. 🎄❤

How I had the best art year

  This was the year I got rejection letters from every open call I applied to. Granted, it wasn't very many I applied to because I am very picky about what I sign up for AND I am also very jaded about these things of late.  However, this was my best art year to date and I kinda love that it was all rejection notices this year and I STILL HAD THE BEST ART YEAR EVER. Takeaway: Today's open calls are very "agenda based" and the jurors they choose to judge have their agendas. Some want more millennials and younger artists and shun the older artists, some want you to tackle race, gender identity, politics, feminist, pro this or that.... And my art does not. I'm going to stick by  my "Nature is more important than most bullshit" stance till I die because the very atom of life and Nature is more important in my eyes than most of the stuff humans do to feel more important than another group.  But I digress! I did not get into the velvet rope clubs and it was gre

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
