No more procrastinating!

I have FINALLY been convinced that my other website www.lexowstudios.com needs to be redone.  I have been procrastinating for YEARS and I finally admitted it has to be done.  I have taken the steps to not renew it and now I'm gonna have to do something about it right?!   

The main instigator is that I have so many paintings now that need new homes and I also sell a ton of jewelry off my Facebook page (and none yet from Etsy), so why not add a paintings page and a jewelry page and quit paying other people to list it for me when I can sell it myself  from a link on Facebook?  And of course all that stuff mean a Paypal button on the website.

I can DO this right? (with a little help from my pal Pam ;) Thank you Pam.... 

Stay tuned, this will probably be a long process for me as I find it painful. Painful but necessary....

Never Enough Time

So I'm falling back into my bad habit of never posting now that the 150 show is up and all the pics have been posted.  Going to try to get 1 week done ....

I (naively) thought that once I got the 150 done I would have plenty of time to work on  -whatever I wanted.  Instead I am finding that because I primarily painted for a year, I am now VERY low on gourd inventory and have to hustle to get caught up.  I have Gallery Walk in the Country here in town coming up on October 6th, and my galleries need new pieces and the holidays are coming and I always participate in some sort of holiday show. GAH!  Oh well - it's a great "problem" to have!

Also coming up is a group show "Inspirations" at the Classic Bean here in town where an artist pairs up with a photographer and paints their version of the photographer's photo. I will have 3 pieces in that show.  (If they don't sell from the 150 show).   Its a really cool show that keeps growing in size. You won't want to miss it!

Coming up very quickly and what is taking alot of my time now is the Dia de los Muertos Festival. I am on the planning committee and there is LOTS of great stuff coming up in October.  Even a fine art show.  Check out the website www.diadelosmuertostopeka.com for all the events. 

I guess that covers my update for today! Have a great weekend!
