First attempt at product development with GearBubble

This little prototype shot glass I designed is in extremely poor taste. Ha! Lol! I love it!

But it’s way too wordy for a tiny shot glass. Redo.

Good job Jay Lynch – they print nicely – color is fabulous and I’m extremely pleased with the quality. I just need to keep working on my designs.

Who needs one? Lol. You have to be really in a good place about death, or drink till you pass out (or experience an out of body experience…) Lol!

Ok. Time to paint Neighbor’s painting. Join me at the bar?

Perspectives of Neighbor’s

I’m getting to know Neighbor’s Kitchen and Yard owner Tom, a bit better. Every time I’m there he welcomes me. I’m not special, he does it for all his customers; what a nice fellow. You can tell his exceptional crew love working for him!

Nieghbor’s is a Pizza kitchen, brewery, and music venue nestled on the Colorado River in Bastrop, deep in the heart of Texas. FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED. ALWAYS WITH LOVE. I still have not completed my painting titled “Perspectives of Neighbors.”

Today, I get to speak to Kelly Clarke, Development Director, Down Home Ranch about getting the kids involved in my next community-driven, giant, hopeful art installations.

In fact, I hope to get both these great companies involved. I’ll make it easy on them: I’ll do all the work with help from other artists and citizens of this great community.

More to come! I’m just a girl with a vision…

All you need is Love

I developed this product today. I ordered one to check it’s quality. Once I approve our online team managed by Jay Lynch, will offer it to you guys.

I’m Getting exciting up in here!

It’s the “All You Need Is Love, Love” candle. Inspired by the Beatles Love Show in Las Vegas. Created for a group show hosted by Lisa Dittrich – Arts Factory 2016 – What an honor it was to be in this show with great artists like Lisa and David Fay and others.

The original art is unavailable – it’s owned by Chelsea Brophy.

I can paint another original for you similar to this one … but this one is hers.

I retain reproduction rights on all my creations.

I’m Having an awesome day here at the Harmony House on the Colorado River in fabulous Bastrop, Texas

Love and peace to all.

Little boat wants to float

The winds blow so hard last night my little boat almost blow away to the river. She’s ready to go be a boat after all these years, but she’s forgotten she needs a little patch work first. Don’t laugh at her … we all need a little patching once and a while.

Kevin found her this morning and put a chair on her to hold her back. Lol.

I’m making art today. It has to be inside my tiny living space because if winds.

I’m hungry to make a butterfly stick today.

Shot glass product coming soon.

So I’ve not updated Adobe Creative Suite since 2009, until now.

So…I’m rusty. Lol huge frustrating learning curve going on up in here.

But I designed a product today – my first. I bought one to check it’s quality.

I’ll let you know. But I love my sense of humor sometimes.

This is Titled “Waiting for this Moment to be Free”…now that’s funny because it’s in a shot glass. Lmao!

I’ll let you know if it’s good quality before I offer it to you.

“Waiting for this moment to be free” on a shot glass. Now that’s funny. Or scary. You decide which. Lol

Something just doesn’t add up.

Well, ok, good…I got that off my chest. Lol

Let’s create HOPE starting Tuesday.

Tomorrow I get my raft out of storage. Let’s paint while floating on that river.

This original is available for $140.

Titled “All we did was make billionaire demigods,” sadly this issue had nothing to do with your health 😞

You can own this original. I will mount and frame it, but I will reserve the right to reproduce it.

It’s 8.5×11 in marker and ink, painted on both sides of the vellum. Neon and metallic markers too. That doesn’t show up well in this photo

I’m quite aware that my view is very unpopular. Is yours?

Back to it.

Kevin goes back to work Tuesday and so will I. It’s been 5 months at 1 pm on January 25 since I had Kevin all to myself for the most part.

I’m going to be sad. Will greatly miss him.

So back to fueling my body properly, and back to making art will be my best medicine.

I love all the different art stations I can build here. Harmony House of the River is awesomeness.

I’m thinking of the one I’ll create in the middle of the Colorado river. Got to get into storage and grab my raft, paddle and a rope. Lol!

Let’s go! Water and ink in the middle of that river anyone?!? Lol

Tons of work spaces.

Tiny living.

Tiny living = Tiny footprints. Not that I believe I can help God manage this globe, but it’s going to be fun to learn to live a simpler lifestyle.

Trust me, if God calls you to be on the road, you soon learn that lugging all your shit in tow is not fun.

I feel another huge garage sale coming on, so get ready Bastrop because I got good stuff!

We simply wanted to see if we would like to build or buy a tiny home one day.

I would have a large art space attached to it, but nothing else would be large – other than the great outdoors. I want a bit of land. When living tiny you want some outdoor spaces too.

We think we want something screened-in with a hot tub and above ground pool inside it one day.

Anyway – So far the answer is 100% yes – we love tiny living. But it’s only day 2.

We will see after I move over the computers, a tiny amount of my art supplies, and Kevin’s work clothes.

But um yeah. I’m digging it!

I would think you really need to do it with peeps who are all extremely accommodating. I can see that is so, and thankfully, Kevin and I have that.

So yeah. Tiny living.
