Weeding and Pricing

 

"Emergence 1"

My first painting of the new year is finished and titled. This week I will take it to be scanned for high res photos and printing. I'm restructuring my whole business this year and weeding out things that don't work for me. That's going to include the small prints. I'm hoping my supporters will just buy the next size up since they aren't that much more. It saves me time and hassle for little payoff. The new prints from here on out will be LIMITED EDITION prints on high quality Rives paper. Real fine art prints that will look stunning in frames. 
I'm also weeding out a lot of stuff on social media and getting very business minded about my time on there. If entities aren't following me back or art related in some way they are distracting up my feed on my @galleryrodriguez page. That page is strictly art biz. I have so much to do to get things sorted out, my website back up and online shops integrated - forgive me if I'm not as chatty as usual for awhile. I'm overwhelmed. 😳 
Along with restructuring comes price restructuring. If eggs are higher and my rent is higher... Guess what? So is the art. This big 36" x 36" canvas original is $2000 and worth every penny. I dare you to walk by it and not turn to look at it, feel uplifted and happier. 😉 But I'm also able to do payment plans for interested collectors and this is how that works...
Contact me if interested and we will agree on a plan and schedule that works for your budget. There will be an upfront price to pay (no lower than $500) and we can work out a monthly payment for you. The art stays with me until payment is completed and I'm free to show it in shows, galleries, publications, etc. This all increases the worth of your future piece. So don't be afraid to collect art- it's really not impossible or far fetched. My pieces will also be available as nice giclees- prints on canvas... So if you love one that sold out /really can't afford the original that's another great option. 
Here's to 2023 being an upgrade year with lots of fantastic art. ♥️

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...

Ride Your Ride Your Ride

my bike Tuco, named after the Ugly One in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly Lifes little surprises never cease to amaze me. I'm not exactly sure how to tell this story but I will try. A few weeks ago my Mom says she was digging around in an old dresser and found this little funny package. The package was flat and made from beer boxes, cut and taped together and a little over 12" x 12" big. On it was my Dads handwriting stating what was inside. RECORDS! And not just any records but records I had wondered what had happened to because I knew my Dad really liked them....FATS DOMINO! He had taken care and written the names of the records for safe keeping. Now they are mine to cherish.  It was like a little gift from the other side...which sometimes doesn't feel very far away. In fact most days it feels like my Dad is still right here with me. With Fathers Day happening this weekend he has been on my mind more than usual.  So yesterday I was a little surprised to ge...
