Crocodile Rock

 I finally started a new painting! This is epic for me because aside from finishing up my Monarch butterfly piece and a small abstract....I haven't done any art through this whole pandemic. 😬 

I have been posting some time lapse videos and photos on my Instagram page @galleryrodriguez and @djtigerbee so you can see this little devil come to life. While I was in the hospital I was visited by a few muses and this albino crocodile was one. Not sure why and still sifting through its symbology but had to release him onto canvas- as you do with Muses.

 I'm working on getting my lighting set up in my studio, installing a video editing app on my phone and doing some PROPER little time lapse videos. It's all upgrade life over here of late. So there you have it...a REAL ART POST ON MY ART BLOG! Amazing right? This is me finally tying up that last bit of business I've been neglecting...my ART.

Been working on home and organization, got the car cleaned up and tuned up and now need to get it fully legal, got my finances out of shamble state (sorta), got my health regiment flowing and showing results and now the Art can flow. It's a good feeling.

I even had a real sleep last night that lasted more than 5 hours. This is weird! Up early to do all the things and go to work...I'm entering a crazy work schedule as I have to juggle my part time job, a work project for another company, my own personal art deadlines for this upcoming art show, working out and keeping everything I've been building up running smoothly. There's not enough hours in the day. How do you guys with kids do this? I can barely take care of myself! 😂 

I'll post more on the artwork when I've made some progress. Till then- enjoy the week!

Addicted

  Well it's official. I am addicted. Luckily to nothing horrible. It was bound to happen. I'm addicted to the morning walk...the endorphins...the serotonin...the "me" time....the solitude....the music pumping in my ears...the nature I see and feeling like I control my day.  I'm usually up before the sun and getting as much mileage as my body allows. Sometimes it's more than others but it's always good. I'm going to add in more sprints here and there as "burst" exercises are better for me than long running sessions.  Yes, even on the weekends I'm out doing it. There is no sleeping in and admittedly I woke up at 2:30am and started having my morning coffee in preparation... Even though I will wait till much later to go out. That's how I know it's an addiction.  Currently on Week 6 and haven't missed a workout or even postponed it. I showed up for myself and made myself a priority every morning. I am proud of that and so much LESS...

Shoot for the Stars!

Shoot for the Stars! Latest painted record featuring Han Solo AVAILABLE ($50) Theres a beautiful rain falling this Friday morning, it's a quiet steady and soft rain. The complete opposite of how it started....loud thunder cracking, waking me up from sleepyland and making my computers blink. Now it's just a little drip drip and quietude. Rain makes primering a no go since I primer outside. I am looking for the perfect large box to spray in, this will ease a lot of trouble with tree detritus landing on a barely sprayed record and wreaking havoc. My house was busy yesterday with order drop off and order pickup and then a graphic design job I was waiting to hear about popped up so I'm officially BUSY for the next two weeks at  least. Wrapping up record orders and the graphic work and I'm happy to be busy and working from home. This record featured above is up for grabs until someone grabs it. I won't have time for new vinyl for awhile so get it while it's t...

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...
