Blog post My 10th

I need to write a list. I have not blogged on any of my platforms for quite a while. I still am doing my art in fact I have been chosen to have my sticker design put on some of the cigarette butlers downtown Easton and they will have my website and my Etsy site address on them. This is a pretty big deal for me as I am the type to slap stickers around anyway. Kinda like graffiti but legal and free to do. I know I haven't been keeping up with the marketing side of all this but what can I do? I work in a steel mill and am one person. Not to mention that artist types were never good at the marketing side of things. With that being said I am learning how to weld which will send my art world in a whole new direction. As far as that list goes I might as well start now..

1.Business Cards and My new Banner. I kind of forgot about these. But they are just about done and ready to order.

2. Nutcrackers. Out of everything I ever made these seem to do the best. I need to get started on these soon for the cold season.
3. So I am working on a comic book. This will be somewhat of a slow process. As I don't really know how many of these I am going to do. Or how quickly I am going to do them. Maybe I'll get into it more maybe I won't. The whole Idea to do one came out of nowhere.
Most of the work I do so far has been painting's and sculpture's.

I have recently taken an interest in electronics. Small electronics to be exact. So a lot of the stuff I do I want to eventually add electrical mechanical elements to. Like motorized nutcrackers for example. Also, I talked a lot about marionettes and I still want to do them but I want to add electronics to those as well. To move the legs and arms.

Then there is the sound sculpture I want to do. This is something I stumbled upon online. An electronic sculpture that produces sound. It hangs on the wall and sort of looks like a collage of circuits. This is something very special I want to do.

I talked a lot in the past about this conceptual piece I wanted to do. I was going call it my first ever conceptual piece as a lot of the stuff I do is mostly stuff that comes out of my subconscious. This was and is to be something with a full story behind it. I still want to do this but I think it is going to take form of a welded piece. After all I want it to be something that can last for ages. Definitely archival it will be.

So, I wanted to blog today. Right now I sitting at the Nazareth diner. I need to get back into blogging on a regular basis. I wanted to give a shout out though just to let people know I am still on the Art prowl if you will.

I may write a little bit later or tomorrow we will see.

Until then, I am signing out.
