Garrett Bauman, Sid and Nancy Vicious--oh my!

Sometimes surprises turn into amazement. Like my friend Garrett. Nice, funny, sweet Garrett Bauman. It turns out he’s a hot celeb. See…

 

 
 

Check out his celeb clients… cool-dom…

So when G suggested I paint Sid and Nancy Vicious, I said “sure!” Unfortunately, while sometimes surprises turn into amazement, other times surprises turn into horror…

 

Last night, after I had already painted Sid and Nancy as a happy punk rock couple from the 70’s, I looked them up on Youtube.  Eeeek! Turns out Sid had stabbed Nancy and she bled to death. Then after Sid’s mom bailed him out of prison, she threw a party for him supplied with heroin which he overdosed on and died.

I couldn’t believe it! My sweet, happy punk rock couple. Then I realized the impact of my painting of Sid and Nancy had just multiplied exponentially.

Thanks G… u Genius u

When it Rains It Pours

In our exciting world of changes, I don't make a big deal of things. For instance, an art gallery (looks like a major one) is asking me to submit my art pieces for their curatorial review. They must have seen my work online and liked them enough to invite me.

Ho-kay, so they would like:
6 to 10 Jpeg images no larger than 1-megabyte (1024 kb) each, 300 dpi

                Title, Medium, and Dimensions of the artwork

                Resume/ Curriculum Vitae

                Artist's Statement

                Contact Information including Name, Address, Phone Number, E-mail, and Website (optional)

 

Which images to send... In this case I would go mindless and follow the path of least resistance... let's see... my Eat Me! Collection ie. that's my foodie paintings, need walls so okay then... Done! Next!

BTW: I like Rain... especially tropical rain... or Vegas summer rain when it's 100 degrees, lightning, thunder... have a kitty cat to cuddle with or tickle... or chase around or sing to...

Of course, you can always purchase prints of my art pieces at Collective Souls

Time to hang my paintings at the Crepe

I wish Agnes (owner of the Crepe) has more time to inform me when and how she likes me to hang my paintings.

Weeks ago, she mentioned I bring my work Thursday night. Many times, I had tried to talk to her, but she was always busy, cooking etc at the restaurant.

Oh, I wish I can read her mind... Okay, let me try... "Agnes, Agnes, calling Agnes... I am tuning to your brain frequency, will you talk to me?"

Agnes: "Oh yes beautiful, how are you?"

Shalla: "I'm good, thanks. Am I to bring my paintings tonight?"

Agnes: "Yes, please do. Sorry, I've been ignoring you. I have a lot of things on my mind. No, I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at me for being overwhelmed with our business, since it's so new...I got old-world tastes since I'm from Europe and businesses seem to be run differently here in America. "

Shalla: "Oh, right. We'll talk. I'll come by then."

xoxo... Hmmm... now I wonder if my roommate, Luke, will help me hang paintings... "Luke, Luke, calling Luke... I am tuning to your brain frequency..."

Of course, you can always purchase prints of my art pieces at Collective Souls

3 Days Before Art Show at the Crepe

Today I found out Jojo asked his kids to come to my art show this Friday. Great, I would have at least 2 people coming. I truly am grateful, I just don't want to be there by myself, alone. Crickets.

Yes, I am still finishing up 8 paintings... whatever happens happens... Doreen Virtue (the Angel Lady ie. she writes books on angelic messages) posted on Facebook: Pray and stop working to make things happen. Okay, so today I'll just pray. 3 more days... oh well... amen.

Of course, you can always purchase prints of my art pieces at Collective Souls
