Q and a
Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?
Hola Galeras,
I think about this so much. I’m super productive but I do burn out too. It’s natural. I read a lot all the time. So much self help and fictional books. I think it helps my mind expand. I feel like being constantly thinking is better than being constantly doing. It’s a war nonetheless. I’m as I say “always making”. So I get very depressed when I take time off but I know it’s easy to get brain fog when I over do it. The rule is for every painting I finish I take a day off. That could mean video games, books, walks, taking photos and watching movies with Alec and the cats. It’s hard but necessary.
I’ve broken too often to not take breaks.
Painter and tom show
Hola Galeras,
The live shows are back again. Tom and I had a few moments to share.
Enjoy
We got this.
Weekend roundup
Hola galeras,
Busy bees buzzing in the darkness.
I made a keychain if you haven’t heard.
Also still trying to find a stopping point with this.
Happy Monday
Hola galeras,
Went for a walk.
Hope your day is nice.
A check in
My son and I are thinking , I have not checked in with y’all in a long time.
So hola galeras,
I am tired. I am tired but in a good way , I hope. My creative mind is burning bright but not so much it might burn out. That is a fear of mine still. That I’m on the end of my candle in the darkness. The sleeping world calls to me these days and sometimes I hate it. My wounds strip me of my energy. What wounds? The ones left from bleeding and bruising. I’m deeply annoyed a lot but I blame it on my diabetes. It puts me in a bad mood sometimes for no reason. I’m trying to meditate more, which is to say I should start meditating again.
I dream about my future sometimes. I see my future home and my studio. So two homes. A lot of kermet green tile. I see lots of fuzzy rugs. So much music. And the cats are there with me and Alec is jamming out.
A perfect dream home.
Im ok but working on it.
Weekend recap
Hola Galeras,
I’ve been busy painting. Here are a few shorts to watch.
Worked on some book club readings
It has been a wild week but I got my car back. So that is great. My last rain ride of the week gave me a present of an empty car.
I think even with the car I might take the train a few days a week. Just feels good.
Be kind to yourselves Galeras.
Ps
I did a new film roll too.
The painter’s vlog
Hola Galeras,
Hope all is well. In the time of 2025 I am moving and shaken. I feel like all these things are kind of leading into beautiful little adventures that will leave imprints on artwork I can make later. There’s just this perfect aspect about conveyor belt, sushi. You just feel so fancy eating very little food
I think the funny thing about the metro and riding the trains in general is I was always afraid of them in my 20s. Well really up until my 20s. I just had this uncontrollable fear that I was gonna get lost and never find my way back home. There’s probably something to that, but I’m not going to look too deep into that right now. It was a beautiful celebration of Mylo and their birthday. Alec still has the perfect touch when it comes to playing claw machine machines and I might even actually be developing a skill.
Feliz Tuesday.
Week end round up
Hola Galeras,
I can’t even begin to tell you how busy this week was but it was amazing and incredibly hear some videos I put up .
Sales my week I feel really good about it. I feel like I really succeeded and did well and I’m living in my dream as a working artist. I’ve been working hard for a long time, but every time I do it, I’m always just amazed and blown away extremely happy. Onto the next week.
Painter’s breakfast
Hola Galeras,
Today is special Galeras. We have sold and are signing off and handing over keys to the condo. I’m happy but sad.
I know everything is fine but I feel like it’s a huge thing and huge things take a lot of you some times.
Wish us luck Galeras as we take big steps.
