I Need A New Computer

You would not believe how fast 'My Pictures' folders
fills up...and slows my computer to
an absolute crawl.
So...I zip them...then whenever I need to use one
I have to go through files and files and files
to find it.
I really need a new computer with enough
space that I can keep my pictures intact...
of course...I also need to be more organized...
I keep thinking I'll get organized...
and then..something else comes up.

My house has never been so messy in all of my years...
I NEED a vacation...albeit a working one...
a clean house and a new computer...
that's what I need!
Sales wouldn't hurt either:)

A couple new ACEO paintings.

I'm 'slowly' getting back to my painting...
I'm still working on the courses that started back
in January...
though sometimes I wonder if I'm actually learning
anything..or not..

So...to keep my 'sanity'...I need to paint!

Here's a couple of new characters
I did for my Rustic Goth Etsy Shop.

Rustic Goth featured.

I am featured on
Grigiodesign's wonderful blog
Grigio.

That is such a nice gesture...
I really am going to have
to spend more time
doing nice things for others...
I'm a pretty nice person
but, it seems I am always so
darned busy working...
I need to slow it down and enjoy
other people.

With that said...
do check out
grigiodesign's Etsy Shop...
she has done some spookily cute
pieces that you need to see!

Rustic Goth Zazzle Shop

I LOVE....LOVE...LOVE this little Mug!
I'm going to be ordering a set
as soon as I put some new pieces on
to go with it.

I cannot believe I have been so 'remiss' in getting
all of my wonderful little Rustic Goth
pieces added to products
available in my Rustic Goth Zazzle Shop.

So....I am taking this last week of May
to get more items into this shop.

Some good reading...

Lately....

So...it's May...and I find myself in a funk...
I should be better...but I'm not.
May and June...really tough months for me..
so..
I've made up my mind
that I'm going to start doing a bunch of new pieces.

I've had some new thoughts...and keep putting
them off.
This funk just kind of kept chasing me around...
when I finally figured out why
...that was half the battle...
course..it wasn't until today that this all became apparent...
but now I'm anxious to work through
the issues with some new Rustic Goth pieces.
We'll see how that goes!!

Etsy Shop Sale....

"I Won't Offer It Again"

Change is coming to my Rustic Goth Etsy Shop...
and in preparation
I currently have EVERYTHING in the Shop
marked down as much as 50%.

And...once the sale is over...
only a few select prints
will be relisted.

Paintings..
Pendants..
Most of my prints
and
print sets...
will be removed to make room for
BRAND NEW PIECES!


Once taken down...I will not offer
any of these pieces in my Rustic Goth Shop...
and very few on my website..

so...for anyone
who is interested in owning one or more
of my current pieces...

...take advantage of the current sale...!

As soon as I have enough
NEW pieces
to put in the shop...
almost everything else will be removed.
