Clearing the Clock

These pieces were sold and collected last week in my second round of posting originals up for grabs. I am really feeling the support right now- which is great because I'm on the cusp of lots of changes.

(Another one that was collected, I really enjoyed the color palette!)

I started the year totally swamped with other people's dreams and no time for my own. I'm happy to say that this week at least one of those time eaters has fallen away. Now I just have one more to wrestle with. It's good to constantly evaluate what is working for you and what isn't. If it eats up all my time, barely pays and I don't feel valued - it gets cut. If I feel at all like my time or feelings aren't considered- I have no space for it. Because I know I can paint for my lovely people and they can support me- I have the power to kick things to the curb that don't serve me.

(All SOLD and collected last week!)

So I'm moving forward and trying to focus on my business and art and leave other people's dreams to them as my own dreams need all my focus. This could be bumpy and rough but I have faith.

TEASER SHOT- UNFINISHED PIECES

These two that were unfinished at time of shooting- will be going up for grabs this morning. I had no time to do my email campaign but I'll be sending out something before they go up. I hope some lucky collectors grab them at MY SHOPIFY

And I look forward to catching up on my work and painting more for you soon! Thank you so much awesome supporters! ♥️ Don't forget your dreams are important too!

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 ...
