a commission nightmare, when artists should use various revenue streams, inappropriate material in our schools, big tech & government agencies controlling narrative
sharing my latest nightmares, lol -- probably the most bizarre yet. as an artist, is the income you're bringing in coming from various sources? how do you know which ones are best for you and where to put your time? do you have kids in public schools and how is your community ensuring that proper material is available to them? did your public schools participate in "banned book week" and how did you feel about it? i've got a ton of questions on this subject -- not a lot of answers, but i thought we could put our heads together on the topic and see what we think. speaking of opinions, did you see the recent senate hearing with big tech, josh hawley of missouri and louisiana's ron johnson? they revealed weekly email communication between government agecies (cdc) and big tech facebook (meta) regarding misinformation and how to controll/censor certain topics, opinions and accounts.

studio update, opportunities for artists & collectors, and “i haven't been seeing you on instagram, are you ok?!!”
how are you?! have you been busy "putting out fires" like we were last week?!! if so, sending soo much love & strength! my sister called last week and said, "there's something in the air..." and i think she's right LOL! fall for me is always a time to reassess and this fall seems to be one that does not want to be ignored! i'll be sharing a studio update as well as some opportunities near and far for artists & collectors. i'll also be addressing the constant question, "i haven't been seeing you on instagram, are you ok?!!” so many deep things i've been pondering and feel like it leads to deeper questions about our society and culture. so enjoy and know that you're loved!!

Homecoming prom high school dance memories
what fun to watch our high school senior & junior go with their friends to homecoming! so many fun new memories & lots of thinking of the sweet old ones too. how about you? was your high school dance experience different than the local kids now? travel seems to be in the air, i enjoyed listening to recent episodes with the ladies of the artist soar podcast & the inspired painter podcast talk about their recent experiences at artist retreats, workshops & solo escapes. will you be traveling for art, respite and/or inspo soon? james o'keefe & his team at project veritas have been releasing some important undercover videos about curriculum and hiring practice in american schools. we've been seeing some pretty scary stuff locally as well.

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode #198 - jessica libor: artist, coach & creator of the online “luminary artist academy”
it’s been my pleasure recently, to get to know beautiful jessica libor of “the inspired artist” podcast and “luminary artist academy.” her podcast is full of wisdom, positive invitations to manifest the artist life we really desire as well as business tips and inspiring peeks into jessica’s incredible artwork and gallery. hear about her artist journey and the experiences that have influenced her style and subjects. she’ll be leaving soon for a residency in northern france, but before that she is having a special sale (till june 20th) on her comprehensive course “luminary artist academy.” check it out and learn all the things jessica has discovered over the past 10 years that traditional art schools don’t teach. also, sign up to attend her solo show & event in september…it’s going to be unforgettable!
