Friday launch

Seems like Friday will be the day of reckoning - of sorts. My web designer is coming here to take pictures and work on the site some more, and hopefully, be able to launch soon. She may want it earlier because she gets paid sooner the faster it gets done.

Therefore, all the acrylics, the watercolors, the pen & inks, and what have you are finally to go. Minus the 7X5 piece gargantuan art I'm making right now, and all the semi-nudes that I'm planning to add as future art. Add in a few more tabs for transaction buttons, a paypal account, and visa + mastercard, and I should be ready.

Hopefully, the Art that follows the huge piece would be ready as well. I already have them 'done' in my mind, but the hard slog still lies ahead. This is what's frustrating. I can't peel off from the giant piece I'm doing and do the smaller pieces unless I finish the big piece first, which is both an asset as well as a liability. An asset because it makes you finish what you start, and a liability because it shows an inability to 'compartmentalize' and get multiple things done without being distracted by another.

Then, there is the matter of the coming projects of the Xavier Alumni Art Guild and Kids Basix. The latter perhaps leading to more full time work, in addition to the two or three commissioned work I have earned so far from the Facebook bombardment. My 'friends' list have bloated to an unfathomable 425 from a modest 170+ just mere weeks ago. tantamount to my doggedness to find new friends, I suppose, but I may as well eliminate the others - especially those that wouldn't give me the time of day if I ran into them in the middle of the street. It's time to pare down that list to real friends, art lovers, and people who actually follow my Art.

Sounds a bit narcissistic, but it is what it is.

Let the games begin.
