Top 7 Things I Learned from the Calgary Arts Champion Congress & Ben Cameron
Last week, in the middle of a pivotal residency in my career, I took a day off to venture into Calgary to attend the Calgary Arts Champion Congress, connect with fellow artists in all disciplines and to hear keynote speaker Ben Cameron. (Ben heads the Doris Duke Foundation in the US and gave a very inspirational TEDx talk at YYC). What a cool opportunity!
Grace QOTD: Religious Indoctrination & Education
Grace attended a catholic school for her kindergarten year of school. It was the only school in our district area that offered full time kindergarten. For us, it was that....or quit my day job. She was ready....she was pumped....and I was a bit worried to be honest with you. Young minds are impressionable. Absolute indoctrination at any point in one's life, I consider unhealthy.
The Residency Chronicles – Wicked Game:: Explicit Death In The Studio
With 9/11 came the realization that we need to be explicit. Explicit in what we like and don't like. Explicit in what we love and what we do not love. Explicit in how we use our time. Explicit in spending time with those we love and telling them each day and each moment how important they are.
Full Time Human Being: My Creed
My creed - Why I am an artist - why I am a Full Time Human Being: "I am an original. There is no other like me. I create to understand my world and my place in it. I create to pray, to curse, to sort, to number, to structure, to destructure, to bleed, to preserve, to recognize, to see, to hide, to show, to tell, to think, to stop thinking, to detest, to love, to act, to be still, to laugh, to cry, to detest but mostly to love for now I am human, but in a few short years, I will be something else."
4 Kind Steps To Green Your Packaging When Shipping Your Artwork
Use old, discarded clothes instead of bubble-wrap or styrofoam peanuts, etc. (ICK for the environment either way you look at it.) If you don't have any, go to your local Thrift Store and get a box. Sometimes, there are even old blankets or comforters people have discarded. Explain to them what you are doing (they may even give you a discount). Create a small tag/note to include in the purchase to your collectors and explain to them what you have done and why. Ask them to take your "recycled clothing packaging" to a Thrift Store near them, donate it and spread the word. Simple. Effective. Human....and kind on so many levels.
Exposé: Who is this Artist’s Seductive Lover?
I have a perfect lover. My lover is sometimes big and sometimes small. My lover is patient. Never starts without me. My lover accepts colour without prejudice. My lover allows me other lovers when I desire. My lover moves and responds to my touch, giving and receiving.
True Confessions of An Artist :: Excuses, Diversions & Remedies for Artist’s Block
I don't feel like I'm prolific or productive. I am afflicted with the dreaded BCS (Blank Canvas Syndrome) every single time I look at that big white space on the other end of my brush. Even worse, I have a nasty recurrent case of ABD (Artist's Block Disease) that prevents me from even entering the studio. Here are my excuses, diversions and remedies.
