There's a pretty big 48 hour sale going on at Society 6 right now...and if you spend over $75 USD you make the artist very happy AND you get free shipping. The making me happy is a side benefit, that free shipping is very nice. There are 4 new pieces up and boy are they different than usual. So make sure you check them out...go buy stuff...oh oh oh!! There's new product!! Let's do that next...
That's right more new product and a sale on Society 6. They are always adding new product...this one is pretty damn cool. Duffle bags. Okay, so most of you minions are probably thinking why do I need a duffle bag? Why not?! Okay, so if you go to the gym there's a great duffle bag with custom art on it. I guess "Go Bags" are becoming a thing...this would be perfect...pair it up with a backpack (also on Society 6) and not only are you ready for the zombie apocalypse or any other lypses' are geddons' but you're stylin' and profilin'. The list can go on...but from here it takes a darker turn...so maybe we'll end on everyone needs a duffle bag...you never know, right? So head over to Society 6, there are 4 new pieces up today...AND the sale....I can't think of a better time to grab one!
In arty art news...I think my art speaks volumes for the most part. I'm growing...evolving...some of the new pieces aren't crazy creepy, but they do have their creepy parts. I have to say I'm enjoying the hell out of doing landscapes. I've always been obsessed with mountains...((start playing John Denver's Take Me Home, Country Roads) I love that song. Yes, I do listen to country and just about everything else, too. That song is almost a constant ear worm for me. I love the mountains with forests. Not to art, just to be in...I am, sadly, in a very flat, cityscape, which I do find beauty in, but it's not the environment I feel like I belong in. I do love the city for the amenities...but mountains beat city. In my book. Not camping...I hate camping...but near the mountains...I digress, I am just really loving where my art is taking me...I have some very creepy rough sketches but mostly the pieces are just coming out...I'm going to be trying to work on some of the bigger sketches...Which leads to a segue card of changes!
I know just last blog or was it 2 blogs ago now that I was liking the set up I had. I'm not sure I'm liking it anymore. The Monday, Wednesday is getting a bit overwhelming at this point. So this is what I'm going to do. I'm going to be doing the big art updates on Monday's and just go back to blogging on Wednesday, mayhaps an occasional Friday blog. I just feel like I'm spending more time prepping for updates than I am arting...and now that my art has completely gone away from abstract it does take longer to create. So there may not be 4 piece update weeks...It's way too much pressure. When the pressure happens the arting suffers. Not that it's suffering now...but I was feeling a bit overwhelmed on all of the prep work. I will still be blogging but actual art will be on Monday's until I think I can balance it again. Another segue...then we'll do more...and then on our merry ways...
I have said this before and I'm saying it again...I'm really thinking of starting Patreon. A few things are holding me back...the biggest is the reward level rewards. I'm not sure what I'd give you...maybe a look into the making of the digital art? It'd not be video...more screenshots with text....don't roll your eyes at me...an extra special secret blog where I tell you my super secret secrets? I for sure would want to do something special for those that decide to support me at a higher level. I don't have the technology to do a video except my phone, which there is no editing, it'd be pretty raw. Again, I haven't 100% decided, but I am seriously considering it. If you have any thoughts, or comments or suggestions on what the rewards should be, contact me, comment on the blog, you all know what to do...my tried and true minions on minion-ness...
Almost done...in the more news...I have decided that life truly does suck on so many levels. That being said, I've also decided that I'm going to try to find the good points and focus on that...I guess if life was super duper fun my art probably wouldn't be so dark...or creepy. I just would like to prove to the universe that things can go swell and I can still be dark and creepy...it's in my blood. On a good point there is a day of Dad coming up this week. I'm looking forward to that. Other than that, I'm hoping to work on some sketches and art a lot. Oh and workout! I actually got into the yoga zone this week, twice! My noggin' slowed down! YAY! It was a wonderful feeling...that and yesterday I actually did a small but hardcore workout before the yoga...and I did it! YAY!! Working out and arting keep me on a sane-ish level.
On that note, minions...sorry for the eye strain...but there was a lot of news to be had...remember to check out the sale at Society 6. I will see you all on the day that is hump!
