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 into my messenger, feed
2. Weird, random nonsense that has nothing to do with me
3. Opinion on me I didn't ask for
4. Negativity 
5. Not getting enough attention, look at me, talk to me. I'm starting drama.
6. I want to buy something from you. Wait, never mind. 
7. Aren't you jealous of me? Look what I have! 
8. I'm just sending you every video ever made by anyone, ever. 
9. I need to dump feelings all over you
10. We never talk but hook me up with something.
Doesn't all that just give you the warm fuzzies and make you want to come back for more, more, more? Ehh...me neither. I'm not even getting into the social experiment petri dish of looking at the actual feed and what others post. Taking a break has made me feel like I've ACTUALLY been checking into an insane asylum every day, constantly. Right now I'm feeling a lot like Sarah up there....YOU HAVE NO POWER OVER ME... I think I finally broke the mirror world. 

My return will definitely be very... Different. Purposeful and strategic while still maintaining good, relationships with my pals and family. More like quickies and less frequent visits. I got a taste of real, sane life without everyone else's "stuff" dumped on me and it's good y'all. It's great. 

Take care of yourselves out there, Art Spiderman isn't always around these days.

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...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...

The New Way

Had a wonderful time at the Artists Showcase and Home Tour on Thursday. It was a great reminder of the new "Im worth it" path I've taken. I really feel like the artists were well taken care of and promoted and enjoyed the event very much. Here was my little curated space: All the artists got their own little spaces to create and show in this AMAZING house. I had lots of great windows and light in my space. Even though my endometriosis pains were popping in intermittently- I stood and smiled and chatted with visitors and fellow artists. These three were my largest pieces there and looked great on the spacious walls.   These look great together- I hope whoever eventually buys them is able to get both of them. Its a fun horizontal/vertical juxtaposition. The food was IMPECCABLE...the cake makers made these elegant cakeballs in various flavors and used each of the artists works to decorate the tops. I have arrived! My art is edible! Ther...
