New cat art in da house!

What’s better than art? CAT ART!
What’s better than cat art?? CATS!
But I digress because I’m already at 4 cats and while I’d like to have more, getting them to get along is tough… plus I’d never sell cats. I collect them. ๐Ÿ˜€

So instead, grab the next best thing which is CAT ART at my shop!

The prints, boss! The prints!

Is that title too old of a reference to make sense to the majority here? I hope not. That would mean I’m old as fu*k.

Aside from the that, I’m super exited! I just started making prints of my most fabulous and favorite original paintings! I love Love LOVE the way they came out!

I only did a few just to see if I’d like the finish I chose or not. So now that I’m officially in love, There will be more! Tons more prints of every painting and drawing I’ve ever made that I totally love!

But for now, check out the ones that I do have and then keep checking back for more at my shop, Enchanted Chroma. ๐Ÿ˜€

I’ve got the photo editing bluesย 

I haven’t posted anything in my Etsy shop since about mid May. I’ve been working on:

  • my own website
  • this blog
  • newer and better photos
  • editing new photos 
  • creating prints from my art
  • And some actually painting

So much to do. I’m excited but I want to get back to creating! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

But I WILL POST new stuff to my shop today! Oh yes… I will.โ˜บ๏ธ

Time waits for no one

Super excited! I received my new mini camcorder today! Now I can start making time lapse videos of my art and maybe even tutorials with more control! I love Amazon Prime! It’s the closest thing that feeds my instant gratification need without having to venture out in my pajamas.

I’ve even stopped caring just enough to not even bother wearing a bra….and yes I need one.๐Ÿ˜

I see a bright future that involves a lot of :

  • mumu dresses and
  • Cats โœ”๏ธ

From Start to Finish

I’ve started documenting my painting and drawing process because I figure if I find watching another artists’ process interesting, perhaps others mind find mine interesting as well?

So for a few close people who know me well….. and now all of you, ( my new bffs ) ๐Ÿ™‚ , you know that I have this fascination with moving to Montana or Wyoming. (Previously it was Portland.) Why? Because TREES that’s why! I love me some gigantic pine trees on hills with grass and wild things (that won’t kill me). I also apparently love parenthesis? ๐Ÿ™‚ and smiley faces.

But in the last few years, I’ve become a hermit and I LOVE it. So Portland is out. Waaay too social, albeit, good coffee. So therefore, I must one day move to Wyoming or Montana because it’s much more secluded. AKA: Less assholes and idiots. I fell in love with that after I started watching Longmire which I started watching because of Starbuck from BSG. Shout out!! But really, it’s a neat show. You should give it a whirl. It’s on Netflix now. Gratitude! ( Spartacus reference there.) ๐Ÿ™‚

Ok so now that you know the back back back story, the back story about the trees is part of my endless curiosity of the “what’s around the corner” bit. But with nature, you take one beautiful winding path and it can go on forever or lead you to others and then you’re at the inevitable fork in the road and which do you take? It doesn’t really matter at that point because if you’re me, then you’re SOL because I have a shitty sense of direction and I’m lost. With my luck, they may just find my cold dead body after the next thaw.

BUT STILL….I want to explore. It just beckons me. Am I alone in this? Surely there must be more of me (but you) out there.

So that’s what this painting is about. It’s one of those paths that just calls my name to seek out what’s in there if I just keep walking. It’s a little dark in the forest but it’s quite cheery comparatively if you’ve ever seen some of my charcoal drawings.

So without further adieu, I give you my process on this painting…..which I have yet to name.

Any suggestions? Seriously… I’d love to hear some suggestions. ๐Ÿ™‚

Cultural food to the rescue!

I feel unusually close to my roots today. I’ve been all about the Mexican ( Messican) food today.

First it was breakfast tacos that consisted of 

  • Barbacoa
  • Guisada
  • Chorizo and egg

(Sorry no photo here. I inhaled these before I could remember to take a photo) But they were delish! Thanks Mama Margies! I didn’t even have to get out of my pajamas because God invented drive throughs.๐Ÿ˜

Now it’s chicken and cheese enchiladas with beans and rice for lunch.๐Ÿ˜‹ 

Now that I’m fueled, back to some art!
