Art Show: Bring Out the Dead, 2019

Two parties in one night. One to celebrate a beginning and one to celebrate an end. Seems fitting for Hallows Eve and Dia De Los Muertos.

The party to celebrate the end is the end of our group show at Limelight Restaurant and Lounge, "Dangerously Enchanted." There is still time to see it, but the show will conclude shortly after Halloween. If you've been wanting to see this show and don't have plans for Halloween (or need a night cap), then their traditional Halloween party would be a fitting opportunity. We've already had some wonderful pieces sold from each artist, but our ambitious artists packed the walls. Did I mention the show opened with over 90 art pieces?

As for the party to celebrate a beginning? I'm proud to announce my participation in "Bring out the Dead", at the Goodfoot Pub and Lounge!


Dallas and I will both be participating in this show. I'm especially excited for Dallas because of all his lovely Day of the Dead girls. He creates a Day of the Dead girl every year, using traditional colors and themes to tell stories and lay to rest what he mourns from the past year. My goal is to submit a new original art piece.

Here is the Facebook event for Bring out the Dead:

Cave Paintings

Hello again Readers! If you thought I was done then guess again. I have decided it is time to write about the topic that caused me to start this blog. I first addressed this issue in a public RuPaul's Drag Race fan group shortly after the events in Orlando. After carefully crafting my post I went to bed and then to work the next morning. During this time my post became a heated conversation and then was deleted before I even signed back into my profile to hold any sort of discussion. It seemed that I had touched a nerve, which was all the confirmation I needed to know I was starting something important.

My Meditation of Pride

The rainbow flag. It has long been a symbol of Pride, encouraging diversity and love. It has shifted, evolved, and become varied in ways to meet specific needs within the overall Queer community. I really enjoy seeing everybody flying their own flags. I recently did research into the original 8 colors of the first Pride flag and meditated on the colors and meanings in order to make the symbol stronger for myself. I found myself walking away with a stronger sense of Pride, a better identification with gay history, and a more general sense of balance. I thought it would be good to share this meditation technique. Regardless of your gender and gender identity, I support trying out this meditation technique to enrich your life.

"Actually..." and National Coming Out Day

Image
      On Sunday, August 8th, I was sent a message from somebody close to me, advising me that my parents had made a public statement on Facebook, a self proclaimed rebuttal to conversations and comments I have openly had about my childhood and experiences with them. When I first read the message I had a knot in my stomach. I heard my mother's voice. She speaks of her suffering, and while I may not be on speaking terms with my mother, and as much as it may surprise her, It does hurt me to hear her suffer. Based on her personalization of what she has read that I have said before, she will likely disagree with my statement that I have never wanted my parents to have misfortune or to suffer. Here is what she wrote:  "We have prayed about this for a long time. Would the day come to ever go public? If you had asked us yesterday we would have said probably not. However today it was revealed to us that a member of our family, our son.. has been on a personal smear campaign against u
