Social Media.

I find myself creating ‘content’ just so I have something to post.

I have lost my centre with this method and I have been working on getting it back because Photography means so much to me. It is part of my core and it will never go away so I am learning how to create something new, despite the constant monkey on ones back to create content.

I have been thinking about a really different way of doing things and I just ordered something to help me try it out. Stay tuned but know in the meantime I am in limbo and will be there until the compass points north and I feel comfortable with that direction.

Consistency and Photo Vogue

I finally broke my dry spell with Vogue.

I submit every week and the last time my submission was accepted was in January.

I keep a library and stay up every Sunday night until 11 so I can submit my two images, every week.

I have been doing this for three years now, every week. Some say that I am prolific and I would agree, I am always creating, with the hustle in mind and holding myself to a standard to continue growth.

Vancouver Mural Festival Block Party, this weekend!

Vancouver Mural Festival is hosting a mini-market this weekend at Main and 5th, just behind the hotel.

Guess who will be there as a vendor with her merch on Sunday 10-3? Me!

Want to know what I will have there? Stop by and see me in person, the rest of the summer I will be selling in person only so keep an eye on my blog for my pop-up information. There are three more to go over the next few months. Keep an eye on my Instagram too, there will be information popping up in my stories.

I will have up-cycled clothing featuring my illustrations, pins, stickers and goody bags too.

Square payment is available.

This block party is featuring one of the biggest mural projects the festival has created to date.

Holidays are on their way, and I'm grateful for you. The one who is reading this. xo

It’s the time of year to look back and send out gratitude to all of those who have helped me along the way.

This has been a year of recovery for most of us and that recovery comes from paying tribute to the community who are in the recovery with you.

I am ending the year by bookending it with an incredible shoot with a brand I am in love with. I am not able to tell you to more right now but believe me when the time comes you will be the first to know.

In the meantime I want to give a great big shout out of gratitude to my circle. You keep me going, keep my juices flowing and keep me grounded and remembering that at the end of the day I am loved, I am supported and I am not alone.

NFT's and Me

I made 12 NFT’s available to purchase directly from my Instagram through CocoNFT.

Are you still confused about this world? It is kind of strange to think about the metaverse but trust me it is real and there is an amazing group of people working at helping you realize it.

NFT’s are a way to support an artist and a way to own their art. The artist retains the right and you get the digital version. I have included definitions of all of these terms in this post.

If you have more questions please reach out, it is an amazing new world for artists and I would really love to see the support soar.

All of my NFT’s are created from Instagram posts and tagged with #coconft A quick hashtag search will show you all 12. Yes, you can search hashtags on Insta just add the pound symbol to anything you want to search and it will bring up that specific result.

Crypto is something that was developed to solve a problem and I am in awe of a hacker’s ability to see a problem and provide a solution for it. Have you read Mind Hacking? I highly recommend it, it’s brilliant. Hackers are not to be feared, they are problem solvers and have been from the beginning.
