Art Snobby

        2020 is the Year of Art Snobby
It is time to get what I'm worth and after this cup of coffee Im jumping on my laptop and gleefully taking the discount OFF my Shopify. I offered INSANE DEALS and no one bit. For example, this diptych (thats TWO big gallery wrapped canvases...TWO) could have cost a person a mere $630 or $315 per canvas if you want to get ridiculous.
That IS UNBELIEVABLY cheap, like not sane on my part to practically give away my art at that price. No one bought it and THAT'S OK. Because it is worth waaaaaay more and it perfectly sets the tone of my new year. ART SNOBBY. No more giving myself away. Worth so much more and will be paid as such. At whatever cost Im not going back to insane pricing to get whatever I can. Done. No $30 minis (stupid ridiculous pricing) and those big nice gallery wraps should not even be less than $500 PER canvas. Truth.
Actual photo of my earnings today on Society 6. FYI- buying a $40 shower curtain nets me just under $4. Seriously.

I've been to some amateur low level art shows and even they are charging more for less quality than I give. 😂
So I use the phrase ART SNOBBY in jest, because Im no snob. Plus I HAD to use the snobby cat photo because snobby cute. My prices will not be ridiculous in the other direction but actually fair to the market, my worth, my experience and my time. So I hope you all come along for the snobby art ride that 2020 will be all about.
New price: $900 which is actually still below its worth (in a gallery this is $2,000) but I'm easing you into Art Snobby gently. 
I'm a firm believer in changing your actions if you aren't getting the results you want. Is 2020 your year to shake up pricing too?

You can now purchase art at sane pricing that keeps me living with a roof over my head and not in fear of utilities getting cut off HERE IN MY SHOPIFY

2020 VIVA LE SNOB! ❤

Digital Vacation

  Have you looked around and discovered you have filled your life with bad habits? If you said NO- good for you, you might not be human! 😁  I was experiencing a major BLAH and it was all because of ME. What I spent time on, consumed, did and did not do. I also felt like the willpower I used to have in abundance was gone and I wondered if I would ever get it back.  First and foremost I had to look at my main bad habits. What was the very first thing I did every day. EVERY DAY! I reached for my phone, I social media blitzed my brain over two long cups of coffee every morning. I made sure to look at my MEMORIES like it was my job every day. Ruminating on the past and seeing everyone's angry opinions and celebrity/political posts and regurgitated memes ad nauseum....is actually not a very optimistic and healthy way for me to cruise into the day. Not only is this not good for my spirit it wasted almost two hours of every morning. 💀 That's precious time!  I'm weaning mys...

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 ...

Top 10 Reasons

  Have you seen Labyrinth? The scene where she finally realizes she had the power all along and that actually Gareth did not ...that's powerful stuff. My favorite part....aside from every scene with David Bowie prancing about in too tight leggings. 😁 My digital vacation got interrupted yesterday. I've still been checking my messages in Messenger because HI IM AN ART BUSINESS AND THAT DONT STOP. I was alerted that the scammer had hit up a mutual friend and because I was trying to be Art Spiderman I went swinging back online to see what was going on. Unfortunately the scammer got someone and I had to make another PSA about it to help my peeps understand what was going on. Barring that though... it's up to YOU to be SMART PROACTIVE RESEARCHING humanoids. I can't save you.  Also my brief pop into fakebook gave me enough fodder to want to keep my vacation going. Here's what I was met with on messenger and on my page upon landing:  1. People pushing politics/celebrities ...
