Saturyay!

New prints will be stocked in my shop soon! I'm pretty excited to get these in my Shopify. They will be hand signed and printed on nice Rives paper. I'll get a release date posted soon if you are interested!

Work, work, work is consuming me at the moment and yes...I missed a whole week of workouts. This should have been my first week of Phase 4, the last phase of Metabolic Renewal. I've done so well ... Then birthday week happened and crashed my diet and then I signed up for a side gig in Lewisville and have been hustling on car stuff. So yeah, I suck. I slipped. I'll pick it back up on Monday though and kale smoothie is the order of the day today.
Sometimes life gets hectic. Forgive yourself and jump back in it. Because I'm always working for bills to be paid and a roof over my head I forgot the art of getting yourself something nice. A small reward for busting butt daily keeping life glued together. I bought myself a very affordable lamp set (two lamps for the price of one!) with some birthday money I received. 
I've always liked the idea of a bedside lamp and the lighting in my bedroom is stale. This is a nice relaxing vibe to relax into in my little sleepy cocoon space. Maybe because I work in a lamp shop the idea of lamps has been in my head 😂 
It feels good to have a nice birthday reward when usually any birthday money goes to paying bills.
This weekend is more work in Lewisville on a hotel project. No rest for the wicked and no such thing as a weekend. Work mode ON. Gotta afford lightbulbs now! 😂 
Treat yourself don't beat yourself! Have a great weekend if you are free to!

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 ...
