Big new LAUNCH!

(Hammering out all the things that haunt me)
Up early having my morning brew and feeling pretty accomplished with this week so far. I managed the Herculean task of updating my WEBSITE...and I don't mean just refreshing some new photos...I mean a complete overhaul and rebranding. It was painful....
Theres a lot I had to cut to make my site CLEAN, CURRENT and easy to navigate.
That means not having everything I've ever painted clogging up the galleries but a nice smattering of the most recent and my best (albeit older) works.

  • Got everything linked in for anyone wanting to purchase art or prints and any of my art merch. 
  • Made an available art page with pricing (crucial) and had to read up on some DO'S and DON'TS for art websites. I think it's pretty clean and I love it A MILLION TIMES BETTER.

You can peep it here and can even give me feedback ☺
MY NEW SHINY WEBSITE CLICK CLICK

At some point Im doing a Wordpress site but for now Im happy with this. So with NEW BLOG LAYOUT and NEW WEBSITE I have successfully knocked out two major pains in the butt that have been haunting me. Next up: NEW BUSINESS CARDS
It never stops!
Speaking of new...I launched Kimonos last week! They are so cool- I'll be adding new designs and styles but this one with the egrets is so classic

You can find this pretty in my SHOPIFY.

In the thick of projects and starting to plan out the upcoming month and make a list of new things to knock out. When you work for yourself planning ahead is crucial- always have the next project lined up, the next thing ready to launch and new stuff in production.
As my wise friend once told me "treat your business like a business"- the simplicity of those words resound with me every day. If you only put about 20 minutes worth of work into your business that's the payout you'll receive. The more you put in- the more you'll receive. I have already seen the fruits of this philosophy at work.
Ok busy day in the studio for me- thanks for checking out my website and please give feedback- it helps me grow!

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...
