The thing that never was

 

Spring is here even though it's not "official" yet and I say that because I'm on a steady diet of Zyrtec and nose spray and sneezing fits and puffy eyes. Oh Spring is definitely here!
Yesterday I finally heard the job I was waiting to hear about isn't going to happen after all, the client decided on something else. Whatever that means 🤷‍♀️ I only know I'm not really sad about it because it was a monstrous lot of work and the time frame to do it kept getting smaller with every passing day the client hadn't made decisions. It was quickly becoming impossible and when it finally just fell apart I didn't really care. I even feel like that happened for a reason to free up time for something coming my way. I really feel like something good is coming my way and am preparing for it.


And in preparing for it I've been redoing my whole website and getting things in order. Staying true to my path and journey I've decided on. I'll do a website launch thing when I get all my ducks in a row. A few more commissions to plow through then I'm back to painting for me and future shows and whatever this magical thing is that's coming my way. Do you ever feel like something better is coming to you that you need to be ready to catch? 

And I'm super proud of myself for not even feeling disappointed at the "job that wasn't" because it never was. You start thinking of people's words as just that- words. Anyone can throw them out there. And I didn't derail my life or time or invest much into thinking about it. You just keep truckin' - and away we go. Happy Friday friends... the weekend is so close!

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...

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...

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...
