Ok, so obviously I kept my account. That was easy.... For once.
I am working my everloving ass off, and loving it. I have been producing around 3-4 new paintings a week, and some custom tattoos too. I am working at filing up the ETSY shop, and getting some sales there... I would appreciate any pointers anyone may have on advertising for web sellers, this is a first for me in a lot of ways.
In about a month and a half I am about to go on an adventure I never thought I would have as a visual artist. The Revolution Circus (
[link]) has invited me to be a part of their caravan and to join them for the spring tour they are planning. I will be painting stage backdrops for the bands to play in front of, as well as doing live art at all the shows along the way. I stand to make money on the sale of any art, and I may even have time for a quick guest spot or two along the way. Tattooers/Shop owners, my leg of the tour will be from New Orleans back up to Minnesota, if you are along that way, stay tuned and I will post a schedule along with any days and places that I would be available to guest. If you are interested, and it works out that I will be in your area with spare time, hit me up and we can make a plan.
As for the Revolution Circus, they are looking for all kinds of nomadic, creative types, from painters to acrobats, Seamstresses/Tailors to computer geeks. Check out their website (link in the previous paragraph) and learn about the vision, and if it lights a fire within you, JOIN US and run the fuck away from home!!!!
