2 cats

I used to have a black cat named Keegan. She was lovely with green eyes and a few white hairs. 
I had a vivid dream the other night. I dreamt that Mike laid a cat upon me while I lay in bed. An orange kitten actually, like some cats are. She was all soft and cuddly, for a split second. I woke up, but I wondered; why is she orange? 

Technology

I forgot my phone today. No big deal right? Not totally. But I have come to rely on my phone for a few things, like email. At times I get so much junk, it's nice to keep the trash can full. Other times I'm looking at sales or the discussions on linked in. I have not done this blog from my phone, I'm a little to scared of doing that. On the other hand, Google may have all the information I have already. Still, I think I will leave this at home for the time being. 

Logo and creativity

I am not the only one. I just saw two people post in linked in. They are having their own logo struggles. One can't think and create. The other has a logo that looks too much like a logo already attached to a big corporation. Me, I'd like to land on one soon. It will come, time will tell. 

I wish I was I wish I were...

Better at everything! Have you ever had one of those days, moments when someone else's work is so much more beautiful, slick or wonderful than your own? I do all the time. Time to stop that and realize my work is my own, not someone else's. Time to take credit for being who I am and for what I do. 

Friday rain day

Just in time for the long weekend. We need the rain, but I hope it does not do this all weekend long. It's great nap weather right now. It's also great weather to sit inside and get things done. Yes, I'm taking advantage of it. 

New logo...for now

New logo for now. Subject to change without notice. This is so basic, I think I will keep this one here and figure something else out for the real deal. 

Logo amongst other things

What's in a name? What's in a logo for that matter. Trying to think of a new idea for a new logo has been like finding a needle in a haystack thsed days. I'm dry as a bone for ideas.
I guess it will come to me. In the meantime I keep thinking about it and trying out a few sketches as well as a few sketches in Illustrator. Wish me luck. My success will end up somewhere I'm sure. 

What I want to do with the rest of my life.

It sounds so serious. It is in a big way. I want to make things look pretty, I want to have fun. I want to be in a world with few metrics to measure my activity. Is that too much to ask?

I have been involeved in this discussion; Would you sell a digital version of your work for 1$? Would you buy a digital version of another artist's work you like for 1$? Could this be the answer to commercialism in art?

Everything about art is changing. I think we all need to change too. What about you?

Yes, I am turning this on again. However, I am removing all images I have personally made. I wish to retain all copywrite for any image I create. Google cannot have my share. If  you want to see my creations, you will have to go elsewhere. I will post a link soon.

Not going to Fargo! That's too bad for Fargo, but good for me. No need to search through my closet for clothes from about ten years ago to arrive at the opening looking splendid! I believe the jury was looking for a more post-modern ethic like his own. I also believe the the juror was somewhat picky.

Latest work. Spain inspired skyscapes.

Primavera!

Not one, but two pieces in! Both are color pencil on water color paper. I hope to see you there!
