If you’re in the area and haven’t seen the Point Suite show at Mirrored Society, the show is up until the end of August. Drop by and buy a book or some art. Event on ArtSlant

IMAG0087Last night I went to Blick in Pasadena to pick up some art supplies. It’s a great store and I love shopping for art supplies. The only problem I have is restraining myself and trying to keep to a budget. At the end of the year I’ll be adding up all the income and expenses and hoping to make a hefty profit. This year I’ve decided to make it easier, usually I keep all the art supply receipts in an envelope (at least the ones I remember), this year I’ll be using Mint’s tagging feature to mark specific purchases as art related expenses. Rather than go into detail here’s a link to a Mint FAQ about using tags.

I ended up purchasing some gesso, matte medium and three 12 x 12 panels, which is exciting because I haven’t been painting lately.

Shoot me an email if you’re interested in purchasing some art, I have plenty and older work will be highly discounted to make room for new. Even if you’re not able to purchase art right now you can do the following:
