Supporting artists is not only about buying work.
It is also about paying attention. Taking the time to really look at what someone is making, sharing the pieces you love, and helping others discover them.
Right now it often feels like the same artists get shared and talked about again and again. But there are so many incredible artists out there that barely get seen.
Talk about the artists you love that nobody seems to know yet. Share their work. Help others discover them.
A repost, a mention, or a few genuine words about a work can go a long way for an artist trying to be seen.
Itβs time to get back to the basics. Enjoying the art, sharing what moves us, and remembering the fun of discovery and collecting in the first place.

On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past.
For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years."
The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking.
How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?"
And God saw it was good.
On the second day, God created the monkey and said,
"Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh.
For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span."
The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years?
That's a pretty long time to perform.
How about I give you back ten like the dog did?"
And God, again, saw it was good.
On the third day, God created the cow and said,
"You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves, and give milk to support the farmer's family.
For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years."
The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"
And God agreed it was good.
On the fourth day, God created humans and said,
"Eat, sleep, play, marry, and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."
But the human said, "Only twenty years?
Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back,
the ten the monkey gave back,
and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"
"Okay," said God, "you asked for it."
So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves.
For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our family.
For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren. And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.
Life has now been explained to you.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information
If you are looking for me, I will be on the front porch.

A great explanation of Flash Flood Alley.
The last week has been a tragic reminder that we all live in the heart of "Flash Flood Alley"
Floods here are particularly intense for several reasons. It's been a deadly problem for more than a century and it's the main reason why the Highland Lakes were constructed #txwx

Another tip: in many of the homes that were severely damaged or completely destroyed, there may be broken pipes that are gushing water. The accumulation of hundreds or even thousands of homes where this is happening will severely depress the water pressure in the area where our brave firefighters are already at a disadvantage because our worthless mayor destroyed their ability to fight effectively by not filling our reservoirs. If you are in those areas and are able to do so SAFELY, turn off the main water to those severely damaged homes.

Friends and neighbors in the Palisades are now working to help put out the embers. Also important: turn off gas lines to houses that are damaged or gone. Usually there is a key attached to the meter. Just turn it 90Β°.

Sorry for tweeting so much, but Twitter throttles out-bound links, so I'm trying this again.
SoCal animal shelters are overwhelmed with people dropping off injured animals they can't take with them as they flee. Many are in need of volunteers, money, and foster homes π§΅
