Been working on finding inner peace these weeks. I keep saying “ do you need this anger. No, then let it go.” It has worked really well on keeping me focused.






Naturally Producer Mochi was a huge help.
I’m not expecting to never have frustrations in my 40’s, I just don’t want to be controlled by them any more. Green tea, coffee, flowers, ink and paint are my addictions of choice.
Have a nice Sunday. Also, how goes it on your end?

Another year is about to past me. I’ll be 40 in 3 days on the 18th. It’s feels so weird. Like, I’m not supposted to be here. I’ve made so much in all these years with my art. I’m a real “Basquiat” painter as people say. I am honored to be in that category. I would be a liar if I thought that was enough for me. A new decade is a new chance for bigger greatness. I crave that.
I can only hope little things like 45s is a nice gift to share. It is an open message of my heart and my past.
I want to be a household name as an artist. I know how impossible that sounds but if you know you can’t win then the impossible is where you live. So pick up a sticker and pass it on.

I think I have this moment that I’ve been waiting for to really make an impact since the pandemic started. I’m starting to see it faintly. I was thinking it was with Tiktok but then I started scrolling and it’s nothing there.
No jabs at a place like that but they don’t want great art as much as they want silly videos. I’m silly just not in that way. Then there is Youtube and IG, they don’t really want a lot of great artist either. They have more of us there but they also just want to be entertained in a mindless way. I used to wish I could tap into that but I feel like I might loss myself in the chase. So I’m here, rambling but also finding a real truth in myself.
I feel like I have a real fan base and maybe I need to love them back fully. I have known so many of you for so long. I’ve even talked to you in your last few days alive. It’s heartbreaking but beautiful that you share so much with me. I want to give you the gifts of my work and connect better with you. So please feel free to contact me at painterfilespodcast@gmail.com.
Also feel free to join my mailing list for little art gifts.
Tchau,
