End of the year


                                Reflection Time


 I've been MIA on here since mid September! Something freeing about not posting all my thoughts, whims, adventures and words on the daily. I know some friends have missed it. I think that is super sweet that they care. ❤️ 

Kinda going through a major life shift, not really sure what all it will entail. Life's too silly to predict. I take each day as it comes and try not to get caught up in the sticky art of "attachment" like the wise zen masters teach. Everything is impermanent. 

Since my last blog much has happened and also nothing has. I've fallen many times on the skateboard and have made peace with the act of getting hurt somewhat purposely. 😳 I got some new knee pads and hand guards. I've since picked up my bass again. I've got a new piece in a new show coming up and have been trying to be as true to myself and what I want from life as I can be. 




As we close out this crazy year I've been trying to notice each passing day and honor it. I'm trying not to paint it in the black shroud it seems to warrant. It was a hard year of hard lessons and decisions. It was a year of surviving by the skin of your teeth. Losing people and pets you love and losing yourself a little in the process. Hopefully finding some things and repairing life. I'm coming out of the year punching and feeling healthier than I have in years. This year gave me some powers. Wounded me and filled me up simultaneously. It will go down in history as a crazy year for sure. 
Wishing you all a healthy new year caring for the things that need caring and the good sense to steer your ship to your journeys proper destinations. ❤️

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 ...
