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! ❤

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...
