Life at the moment

                My workstation in bed
Usually I make an announcement before I take a "facebreak" but it was kind of a spontaneous decision and warranted no hooplah. It seemed as good a time as any for another "retreat". I need my reset button pushed and this usually does the trick.

Im closing out the second week of back injury mode and although Im feeling like a lot of progress has been made- still injured- still can't walk too much or sit too long.
Ive devised a little workstation out of a tray and a piece of wood so I can work more comfortably in bed on work that's piling up.
Being off Facebook will help me be productive and Ive removed the place I bemoan my woes so no bemoaning now. Its not productive and I need to be productive.

My chiropractic sessions are done and they helped a lot. It was good to get a visual of mortal me. A crooked skeleton. Now Im on my own for self care and staying on top of my injury. Its been a trip down memory lane to the 10 years ago when it happened and the battle to rebuild myself.
Rebuild again. Its a theme of life. Get destroyed and rebuild-over and over.
I feel like a lot of things need evaluation right now and also a lot of just plain "letting it be" and not chasing anything.
What does any of this have to do with "art"? This is the art of life. Getting destroyed, rebuilding, weathering the storms, turning inward, working it out, pushing through and standing up again.
This is the art of life.


If anyone needs me theres Messenger still. If youre a VIP you have the batline phone number for texts,etc. Instagram is most likely still gonna be scanned on the daily. My Tigerbee Arts page is still active and I may pop off a blog or 2 here for the curiosity seekers.  I'll be back but just need a break at the moment.
Hugs, Trish

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...

The Age of Upgrade

BIG BATCH OF HAND PAINTED WAX FOR SAN FRANCISCO I wanted to do a  blog about the upgrade I'm doing and why. Because I am an artist and not a business person I have been lax on so many things I shouldn't have been and caused myself a lot of headaches. This was a year of growing pains for my business and days before my birthday I decided my new age of 39 would be one of grand changes. For starters...I'm typing this on an old Android phone. It's the only equipment I have. My old Mac finally gave up the ghost and I can no longer do any graphic designing in Photoshop or even save files. This will need to be upgraded, I need a computer. Let's talk about vinyl though...I started doing the vinyl about 6 years ago and they were pretty basic novice attempts at painting on vinyl. After many experiments, failures and tons of practice... I have brought them into their own. They started as $30 discs and climbed as I got better. I marked everything DOWN to $50 this year...
