Things to Come

Art, Damion Photo, Marketing, Self Promotion

As I sit here, assuring myself that week two of this unwavering cold will make its final appearance and I’ll be back in the wild, making good with the opportunities thrust upon me, using my self-taught talents to break free from this winter malaise by finding new inspiration to chase down projects that will keep me busy and financially satisfied throughout the remaining winter. In the meantime, I’ve put aside time to sharpen my skills and add a few new tricks to fill my old bag of tools. Although I finally have my new website up and running. There is tons more to do. I’d love to get around to meeting up with art minded folks in Virginia, Maryland and Washington DC. And even find a place or three to exhibit my work. Only time will tell. In the meantime, I’m putting aside time each day to revisit old files and images in order to keep my hard drives from being featured on an episode of Hoarders.

Something to Share

Advertising, Promotional, Social Media

After months, no years, I’ve finally ordered new business cards from moo.com. While my last order has yet to run out. The practice of handing out cards with a Seattle address and images that don’t show my growth as an artist takes further explanation than I’m prepared to share. The hardest part for me, as usual, was making a final design and choosing the images that best convey the message I wish to put forward. Now, with fresh cards that correctly pinpoint my area of operation. I hope to overcome the shyness and introverted nature I worked so hard to develop, and invite some new inspirations into my lair. Over the weekend, I chickened out of three possible muse connections. We’ll see how long it takes for me to come out of my social cocoon. Until then.

Refueling For a Day That May Never Come.

Over the last month and far before that. I’ve been working on putting together a new website and photo-included business cards to give out to prospective customers, friends, and whomever I might run into during my excursions to the outside world. Considering my last batch of cards read that I live in Seattle and list a website I long ago lost the password for and a no longer active email account. I’m overdue for an update. Considering I left Seattle in 2021. I can’t help but wonder, wtf was I waiting for? Ultimately, this will all cost me. A monthly fee for a website. Money for new business cards and that studio light set I’ve had my eyes on. All for what? Will people be lining up for studio time? Will I find new faces for an upgrade to my portfolio? Will I lose my often overthinking mind trying to book clients? Who knows. Choosing a few images and a suitable template sounds and probably is easy. But it hasn’t been for me. So with a self-imposed deadline looming. I wonder, will it get done? Wait. Let me overthink this.

Launching a New Website with Wix

After a few weeks of choosing images and playing around with different looks and styles. I’ve published a new site that is both professional and at least for now, minimalist. I’ll be adding new and varied work in the near future. For now, it just needs a visit from you.

Come stop by and say hello.
