Honey, SAD and Finding the Light


    Facebook is down for a bit and...Im ok with that. It's reminding me of how nice it is when it's out of my life. Ha ha!
Just a quickie blog while I sit here with raw honey on my face- its a lovely and easy facial without ANYTHING weird. Just bee goodness. 🐝
      Launched prints yesterday and have alot of stuff to do to sync my SHOP up with some art products. I'm dedicated to getting my business to WORK FOR ME but there's SO MUCH TO DO AND LEARN! The first and primary thing is: MAKE THE WORK

So not getting too bogged down with computer stuff right now- I have to create, make the work and produce.
This was a weird week of starting a diet and killing it in the same sentence. I cant tolerate headaches. Im not doing it right. But my DIM came in and I'm starting it  today.
Take 2! No beating yourself up just jump back in there. I also did not see my gym all week.   Next week I'll be back to punching. Right now I'm being honest with myself and I just want to be home-creating and not having headaches because I'm depriving myself of coffee and food. 😒
It's Friday and GREY and Im fighting Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and I want the sun back but it is what it is.
It's Reggae time and paint time and finding the light that's there somewhere.
Have a great Friday! Prints can be found here: https://tigerbee-arts.myshopify.com
I'll talk more about the beautiful paper its on next time and also how these are LIMITED EDITION signed prints and won't be offered forever so get them while you can 💋

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...

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...

Everything in it's place

One of photographer Franks Lopez's vintage cameras Last week was a whirlwind of deadlines, bus trips and fun...all culminating in an art show on Saturday night and two glasses of celebratory wine for all my efforts. I had set a goal for three new vinyl works  to be done in about a week and actually made that happen (actually make that 4!). Normally 3 new vinyl pieces would be nothing for me to do in a week but I had challenged myself to work outside my realm of expertise and delve into the world of LED lights, epoxy, drills, bolts and other fascinating construction. The end result is that I can now push my vinyl creations further - the finished piece was well received! Sales were made and sales are pending and a whole new crowd has been exposed to my work. YAY!  I found myself modeling for local photographer Frank Lopez last week and was thrilled because I like his work very much. He was doing "tintypes" and I got to see the whole process in action as well as ex...
