This is one of my favorite recent paintings (I feel like I say that about every painting but actually for this one I mean it…). This weekend at the market a client reminded me of something I often put to the side; as I wrapped up the work she bought (a different painting than above) I said to her “I hope this painting turns out to be a great investment for you- it’s what I wish for all of the people that have supported me.” And she said “l hope that beyond any investment, it just continues to bring me a lot of happiness when I look at it.”
———
I just finished up my Monday therapy session where my therapist and I discussed how I put an immense amount of pressure on myself to be “successful” and that by doing so I corner myself into thinking I’m not where I should be in life right now. This is a by-product of dealing with a lot of family trauma at such a young age (that I’m sure many of you can relate to) which resulted in always feeling like I had to be “perfect” “good” “pleasing” - a person who is worthy of someone sticking around. A lifetime of this has created an adult version of myself who I sometimes don’t recognize because I’m always focused on what other people want me to be rather than what makes me happy.
———
At the markets and fairs, people frequently ask me what the meanings behind my worksare and I always feel like it’s a disappointment to say they just are what they are- brightly colored observational distractions from the other parts of my life that at times have felt too heavy. Art in many ways has been my longest relationship and coping mechanism so when people tell me viewing my works makes them so happy, im going to start saying creating them makes me happy too. And that is reason enough.

Very excited to share that @saatchiart profiled me in their “One to Watch” emerging artists series! You can read my interview on the @saatchiart website, in the link in my stories, or by using the link in my bio. Thank you @saatchiart so so much for featuring me and my work✨
————-
It took me about three months to finally get around to completing this interview mostly because I was overwhelmed by other tasks but also because it required me to submit photos of my work space- which at this time is an extremely small part of my already extremely small apartment. Since going back to painting, my lack of space has been a real point of insecurity for me. I’m starting to accept that everyone moves at their own pace, makes changes at their own pace, and your surroundings are not a reflection of your talent. This is where I’m at in life and I’m excited to see where this opportunity and the @saatchiart community takes me!

Swing by the @knockdowncenter today 3-10pm or this weekend (Saturday and Sunday (11-7/6pm) and say hi- I’ll be over at booth 117! This has been an extremely rewarding and exciting experience for me. I haven’t participated in a show for 10 years and I can’t tell you how much I love seeing my works hanging together and framed. Thank you to all of my friends and family and the NYC community for the outpour of support! 😭❤️🥹

My most recent commission featuring notes from the couple’s shared love of Italian pasta nights with friends while playing Scopa over good wine. I love it.
—————
This piece took me a lot longer to complete than I scheduled for mostly because I’ve felt so utterly burnt out. I’m grateful for the patience my clients extend to me and their super kind and encouraging words upon seeing their piece for the first time (see their email in the last slide).

As this client mentioned, paintings (also in my opinion) are investments to be looked at as generational gifts within families. Similar to houses, jewelry, stocks- as a collector you are investing in the art you put in your homes and in the artists who make it.

I wish more people approached collecting with this mindset— as I know it can feel out of reach financially for many (me included). However, when you see how frequently people justify fancy purses, second homes, luxury cars, etc I’m also reminded that a lot of the mental hurdle used to justify collecting original art (or not) is tied up in how we view our things and what we prioritize as investments, rather than what is actually out of reach as a buyer.

I told my aunt and uncle recently that I often feel like I’m playing a game with art- what will sell, what won’t, when will the right person see my work, when will I get too tired. It’s hard to navigate sometimes but receiving client emails like this one reminds me of why I keep playing.

Here’s a reminder to support working artists, support small businesses and to send your creative friends notes of encouragement every once in a while✨

I told my aunt and uncle recently that I often feel like I’m playing a game with art- what will sell, what won’t, when will the right person see my work, when will I get too tired. It’s hard to navigate sometimes but receiving client emails like this one reminds me of why I keep playing.

Here’s a reminder to support working artists, support small businesses and to send your creative friends notes of encouragement every once in a while✨

My most recent commission featuring notes from the couple’s shared love of Italian pasta nights with friends while playing Scopa over good wine. I love it.

This piece took me a lot longer to complete than I scheduled for mostly because I’ve felt so utterly burnt out. I’m grateful for the patience my clients extend to me and their super kind and encouraging words upon seeing their piece for the first time (see their email in the last slide).

As this client mentioned, paintings (also in my opinion) are investments to be looked at as generational gifts within families. Similar to houses, jewelry, stocks- as a collector you are investing in the art you put in your homes and in the artists who make it.

Big fan of shoes over here 👋 most people in my family have one time or another experienced working in a shoe store (me included!) and I think in another life (or maybe later in this one) I would have loved to be a shoe designer. Let me just say, it was one wild summer working for @easyspiritofficial at Fair Oaks Mall-ending with a FBI investigation and an elderly woman throwing a box of shoes at my head. More on that when I have time to write a humorous essay 😅

PS Who ever buys this painting will also be buying Betty’s first painting… swipe to the end to see what I mean.

PPS If @ralphlauren would like to buy this painting that would be a very cool full circle moment for this work! Just putting that out there for the Instagram gods to hear 🔮

Opening night madness at the @theotherartfair !

I’m very happy with the new pieces I brought to the fair. I feel like they are much more “me” than a lot of works I’ve showed in the past. Shoes, ribbons, candies, soft yet bright colors, intimacy, and expressive wide brushstrokes.

As I was looking at the works all hung together I realized that they are very similar to works I showed in my college senior thesis show. For the first time in a long time, I felt happily nostalgic for that period of my life. I felt a sense of sureness that the path I’m on is a long, linear one that is starting to cohesively connect.

Part of a client mockup for a fun new piece based off of their wedding tablescape! I make mockups using colored pencils to help stop me from having painting-paralysis (ie. when I get so overwhelmed by the thought of starting a work that I then put it off). The finished work will be landscape orientation, with this being a slice of the mid section.

Prints coming soon to a @dailyprov near you! Very excited to see these in person once they are up on the walls 🍩(There’s no cruller emoji so the 🍩 will have to suffice.)

Join me this Saturday, February 21, to celebrate the opening of @thirddoorbrooklyn ‘s group show, ‘You Can Cut All the Flowers, but You Cannot Keep Spring from Coming,’ featuring my work titled, ‘Morning Routines.’ With this work, I invite viewers to see themselves in the mundane objects that reign over our familiarly repetitive routines. Different lives lived, tied together by the commonality and nostalgia of these shapes and objects.

비밀리에 인스타그램 스토리 보기

인스타그램 스토리 뷰어는 인스타그램 스토리, 비디오, 사진 또는 IGTV를 비밀리에 보고 저장할 수 있는 간단한 도구입니다. 이 서비스를 통해 콘텐츠를 다운로드하고 언제든지 오프라인으로 즐길 수 있습니다. 인스타그램에서 나중에 확인하고 싶은 흥미로운 콘텐츠를 찾거나 익명으로 스토리를 보고 싶다면, 우리 뷰어가 적합합니다. Anonstories는 신원을 숨길 수 있는 훌륭한 솔루션을 제공합니다. 인스타그램은 2023년 8월에 스토리 기능을 출시했으며, 이 기능은 흥미롭고 시간에 민감한 형식으로 빠르게 다른 플랫폼에 채택되었습니다. 스토리는 사용자가 텍스트, 이모지 또는 필터로 보강된 사진, 비디오 또는 셀카를 공유할 수 있게 해주며, 24시간 동안만 표시됩니다. 이 제한된 시간 동안 높은 참여를 유도하며 일반 게시물보다 더 많은 반응을 얻을 수 있습니다. 오늘날 스토리는 소셜 미디어에서 연결하고 소통하는 가장 인기 있는 방법 중 하나입니다. 그러나 스토리를 볼 때, 제작자는 자신의 뷰어 목록에서 당신의 이름을 볼 수 있으며, 이는 개인 정보 보호에 대한 우려를 일으킬 수 있습니다. 만약 스토리를 아무도 모르게 탐색하고 싶다면? 그때 Anonstories가 유용해집니다. 이 도구는 신원을 드러내지 않고 공개된 인스타그램 콘텐츠를 볼 수 있게 해줍니다. 관심 있는 프로필의 사용자명을 입력하면 해당 프로필의 최신 스토리를 확인할 수 있습니다. Anonstories 뷰어의 특징: - 익명 브라우징: 뷰어 목록에 나타나지 않고 스토리를 볼 수 있습니다. - 계정 필요 없음: 인스타그램 계정에 가입하지 않고 공개 콘텐츠를 볼 수 있습니다. - 콘텐츠 다운로드: 스토리 콘텐츠를 직접 다운로드하여 오프라인에서 사용할 수 있습니다. - 하이라이트 보기: 24시간 제한을 넘어서 인스타그램 하이라이트를 볼 수 있습니다. - 리포스트 모니터링: 개인 프로필의 스토리 리포스트나 참여도를 추적할 수 있습니다. 제한 사항: - 이 도구는 공개 계정에서만 작동하며, 개인 계정은 접근할 수 없습니다. 장점: - 개인 정보 보호 친화적: 인스타그램 콘텐츠를 보면서도 눈에 띄지 않습니다. - 간단하고 쉬움: 앱 설치나 등록이 필요 없습니다. - 독점 도구: 인스타그램에서 제공하지 않는 방식으로 콘텐츠를 다운로드하고 관리할 수 있습니다.
