As you have most likely assumed from the lack of updates here, most of my time is being devoted to CarmineMag.

This domain expires on July 3, 2008. I’m still not sure if I’ll be renewing it. We shall see how things go between now and then.

I hope that in the next year I will actually have some time to get some more artwork done, but with writing, interviewing and editing for Carmine, plus all of the other projects I have going on I’m not sure when that will happen.

Hello everyone!

So, I haven’t written about this on here yet, but I’m going to right now. I have spent the last two months or so changing my life around completely in preparation for making Addmyartjournal into an online magazine/blog (and future print magazine). It’s going to be called Carmine Magazine (named after the ink used to make some red dyes and paints).
It’s been a blast and I am really, really looking forward to getting this whole thing off the ground.

I’ll explain the site more later, when it’s actually finished being built and I’ve rewritten all of the entries and interviews on the site. (That’s going to take forever! I hope not…)
I can tell you there will be more interviews, tips, tricks, tutorials, pictures, reviews of products, reviews of books, art shows, videos, business tips and a bunch of other things on the site in the future.

In the mean time Check out the CafePress store for the magazine. Buy a shirt, help us get the site off the ground quicker!

I am so sorry for the lack of art updates here to wheelhopcity! I’ve been quite busy with school and with my pet project (slash future side job) Addmyartjournal on livejournal. It’s a community all about promoting artists, which I love! I’ve been interviewing a TON of artists in the last couple of months which has been really exciting.
I’ve also been doing a lot of school work (BOR-ing! not really).
Other than that I’ve dyed my hair pink. New favorite hair color EVER. I absolutely love it.

I promise I will start working on some art again soon.

For now I leave you with some links to awesome artists:
Serpenthes
Katie West
Mae Jane
Brian Ewing
Rosemary Travale
Melissa Haslam
Leanna Wright

Addmyartjournal Interviews: I interview other artists, at least once a week, at the livejournal community addmyartjournal. I love doing it, it’s a fantastic opportunity, but it can be rather hard to track down so many artists, ask them for interviews, get the interviews and find pieces of their art to post. I have a long, fantastic, list of people for the next few weeks. I’m quite excited about them.

Dye My Hair Pink: I ordered the dye on Friday afternoon, it’s almost here and I can’t wait. I am very much looking forward to finally having pink hair.

Homework: Get together with my scene partner, memorize my lines/plan my costume, write Sociology paper, do more research for Sociology project, do my Sociology test and read the next chapter. I have a lot to do this week, luckily it’s spring break!

Work on Secret Project: My husband and I are working on some secret projects. I’m really excited and we need to get these things rolling.

File Taxes: Seriously.

Workout: I’ve been slacking in the last week. Not good.

Hello everyone!
So, I didn’t end up making it down to Southern California last night for the art show. I was really upset about that for a while, but it ended up being the best course of action with our financial and emotional situations right now.

We did, however, get a lot of really good food shopping done. I am attempting to take some inspiration from Gala Darling and incorporate more fruits, vegetables, whole grains and water into my life. Which is making me really happy. Though I must admit, when we ventured into the local health food store to buy more L-Theanine supplements to help level out our moods, the staff at the health food store was not very appreciative of my leather jacket. I apologize greatly, but I do love my leather jacket.
After the health food store we ventured over to Trader Joe’s a store that many of us know and love. We found all kinds of really amazing looking, healthy food there. I am quite excited to start making smoothies again (that was one of my first jobs, making smoothies in a place named after an African dance).

In other art news I will be posting pictures (and perhaps some video) from the Art Show as it is available to me. Also, I am working on a very bright, cheeky painting right now. I love the idea.

Have a fantastic day.
