First of the month

New month, new gameplans!
Its the first of August and because I hustled extra hard in July I made rent and still have some pocket change to cruise into the new month-which doesn't always happen. So going into August full of gratitude and a mindset to work extra hard this month to keep momentum up.

I'm starting the day making a list of goals I want to hit this month. Adding new products to my shop is on that list -and Ive kicked it off with a new skateboard ❤ You can order this new baby from my THREADLESS shop:

Theres new stuff in my Shopify shop as well and some SALE pieces. This piece just SOLD yesterday to a new collector. Super affordable! "Untouched Depths", original on canvas.

Today feels like a productive, creative day. Starting it off with painting and getting some prints matted. Its time to get a jump on the Fall, believe it or not and it would be nice to have some stuff ready for selling events. I think I may jump into that this season.
"Be ready so you don't have to get ready" is a good quote ...I don't remember where it came from but it plays in my head daily. Make the stuff, do the work...so when opportunities come- you're already ready to go skipping out the door with them.
Hope the start of your month is a good one too!

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...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The New Way

Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space: All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space. Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists. These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls. These look great together- I hope whoever eventually buys them is able to get both of them. Its a fun horizontal/vertical juxtaposition. The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible! Ther...
