The Old Ways...


I think I jumped off Facebook on the 3rd...it's somehow now the 14th. Time has kinda been zooming this month! Yesterday I got some prints matted up to ship out, transplanted some baby tomatoes (fingers crossed, these are my first tomato plants I started) and did some much needed chilling. Godzilla marathon was on, how could I resist?
Today will be more chilling in the AC with my cat tribe, finishing up a few projects and I think I'll learn a new recipe today. There's always tons to do and now I have time to do it. It really does feel like I left a terrible relationship when I left Facebook and now I'm standing in the sun with the wind blowing my hair and I'm spinning and laughing and...ok not quite like that but kinda. I recommend if you are feeling overwhelmed and just need a break. 🥰❤️ 
My sister sends me the cutest mail! I can't wait to try my hand at felting that cute hamuchan (hamster)🐹. My mom and I have talked about starting a garden at her house, she has a yard and it will be fun since I hardly see her.
More fun mail this week...my friend Elisabeth from Facebook sent me her published book that is about to go into second publishing. How fantastic I'm reading it today!

She wrote and published it based on Inuit folk tales. I've noticed friends are taking time to connect with me in the"old ways" and I love it. Snail mail or actual letters on Facebook instead of "reacts" and "saw your video/post and didn't say anything." Lurker culture! But I have tons of friends and family on Facebook so I haven't completely kicked it. Ok, off to enjoy my Sunday. Hope you are enjoying yours 🌞

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 ...
