Let the ghosts go

It's nowhere near Halloween but I'm thinking about ghost people and setting them free to the wind. Ghost people may have seemed like friends at some point in time but in reality never had the proper mechanisms inside them to be your friends. They were either motivated by one thing or another but that motivation was never love, kindness or authenticity. It was a good time or nothing for them. There's a reason why the term "fair weather friend" was coined.
So whether you kicked them to the curb or they "ghosted" on you AGAIN (because thats all they know to do, cowardly pitiful things) it's a good time to just let them fly off and not let them in your house again. MARCH is for marching forward. Im not only thinking of my own ghost people but seeing how people keep a beef going on Facebook long after the fact. Let it go. Life is wasted on that stuff.
Im having a recharge weekend connecting with a lot of things and celebrating all the kind friends who offered supportive words to me last week. In the end you can't focus on the ghosts but on the sunbeam people who got your back no matter what. And no animosity towards ghosts- they aren't real things of substance anyway.
Put energy where it deserves to be put. ❤
Ok I have many paper leaves to cut and assemble for a work project... and my bass guitar wants some love... and I'm on the last chapter of my book...
Happy Sunday- direct your energy accordingly ❤

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
