the grove

Well to up date u friends, this was a joke.. and i stood in the cold and wind to watch an unorganized mess go nearly no where, and wait till i post the photos of the models.. wholy shit.. these have to be the ugliest girls i've ever seen and let me briefly say, i wouldn't put earrings on this girls if they were the last girls on the planet.. so fair to say.. it was a learning experience.. but not a money making prospect.. that's ok .. i did meet some people and know that i have to follow up.. meet a great girl in victoria secrets that is a make-up artist, and another couple of girls in David Kors store.. evidently i was looking somewhat outstanding and got a lot of attention and my jewelry too.. so that was good and the grove is a good place to hang out and meet people, when i'm not doing other things.. so i will find another way to promote Up Your Ear..


NEXT!!!!

andrea and of all things, of course the crew.. who again, where good sports, as they came along..

as gray clouds part to open blue skies i write

As i sit on this quiet sunday morn, a city sound asleep, apparently, i gaze outside my bedroom window, now my office, cool damp, cloudy skies, the tree leaves, greener, against the sky, dancing singing finches, fly from branch to branch, as doves search for worms, below, and as i stretch my eyes to the horizon, the flat gray rooftops, bougainvillaea, fushia pink, wash over, as if a wave onto sand, on a lovely beach.. A hint of sun struggles to find it's way to beam down on this city of angels,
beckoning a new day, filled with wonder..... what should i wear to the fashion show!!! No proper clothing for this weather here i find myself out and about wearing sweaters left by my mom.. my only warm clothing, not appropriate for this event, out doors at the grove.. where i will put earrings on the models.. and pass out cards.. meet people, and continue my dream.. Up Your Ear.... a house hold name!!

For those out of the loop, the grove is a very
sophisticated venue of upscale shops, to say the least, where anyone in hollywood, plain, tourist or celeb can be found.. right next to CBS studies where american idol is filmed the majority of the time till they move the finals to the Kodac on Hollywood bl..

So look forward to sharing my days adventures, somewhat more exciting than the mundane of laundry, i must fold, 2 flights down, less enticing a thought, but a must none the less.. ugg.

So off i go.. the crew and i .. will joyfully let u in on the adventure later today.. or morn tomorrow..

be well, and let the sun shine in.. may u find the beauty outside your window.. as i do mine..

andrea and.. crew

It is midnight soon on the east coast, i sit and imagine only three weeks ago, i was there, now on PST time..

my feet hit the ground on monday, i started to work, what for weeks, seeming like months, i couldn't focus 'till i worked a plan.. A & B for my mom's sake.. still working on B!!

onto my website, it's being completed in days, as if we have what it costs to do so.. what a bitch to struggle as an artist, where are those supporters!! like so many other got.. i've been blessed in many ways to countable to mention.. It is up to me to make Up Your Ear the success i want, and as well carry on my other artistic endeavors.. i eat, drink, and sleep this.. i may have a thousand other distractions, relationships, and goings on, but this is my one main goal.. i must do art, in it's many aspects, the writing, the painting.. and photography.. sometimes i feel like taking pictures, other times, i want to write.. Right now, i want my website in order, before i lose the christmas orders, this has been in the works since january.. really.. when u fund everything ur self and just make ends meet.. it gets tuffer.. it's the way it is..

you know if i could make a wish, as far as business is concerned,, I wish someone could see the potential i see in this earring biz of mine.. i know, with the right help, i could take this to the top.. happily sell it, run the co.. designs and so forth, and move on.. but without that realization, it's just another show, I love the travel, but it seems a waste of time, just a means to an end, if this is not the international earring co. it should be.. with true capital, and good guidance.... this really could be huge, no better than now, with this pathetic economy, how do u think the Vanderbelts made it, right.. shit.. during the depression.. and if ur buying this recession story think again.. well i'm Cranking none the less, and i worked a little carnival here in town, put on by the L.A P.D. on Pico, and La Cieniga, went for the connections and got a little more than groceries for the week.. but the connections, which is why i went, came strolling in, working some fashion show.. hum at the grove, for breast cancer awareness, 2pm sunday nov 21st Walk for Breast Cancer III, Johnny Rockets and after party, i will not, sadly attend, i have the crew, at the Sofiel Hotel, hosted by David Harrison Levi, some guru of the stars.. Known as the Star Maker..looks more like he attracts stars rather than make them.. whatever this is hollywood..

and as for my other endeavors.. keep posted.. i shall let u in.. lots to do..

and the love u make,
thinking of a beatle's song.. i'll post

be it well i find u

andrea and crew..

I started to write the other day.. thought i share some thoughts on veterans day..i couldn't.. then i thought what could i write about and these thoughts just started streaming through my head.. as i sent to many, my invite, to my thanksgiving... this year, i will celebrate in the most unusual way.. as i will be working thanksgiving.. it dawned on me.. november 24th, the day before, will be a year since my mothers passing...so i'm inviting moms nearest and dearest to visit at their leisure, that day.. i will cook up some of that famous spaghetti sauce, leave it in the pot, on the stove, for all to serve them selves, hell someone might even have to finish cooking the pasta, some one always had to finish whatever meal she started.. and then serve themselves as they are hungry..

i will be lighting the candles, as i do regularly, but not regularly enough.. i should light them every day.. i forget sometimes.. life..
The pretty glasses will be spotted, and maybe someone will get lucky and still find i didn't wash one well enough that her lipstick is still on one!!!! The invited guests will provide the cheep wine and vodka, neither of which i drink..

i will put out the dishes, the paper napkins, and the mismatched "silverware" aka utensils.. and the music, a little Marvin anyone? "Let's get it on" Engima.. i'm not sure i get.. maybe someone can explain it to me..Rod stuart seems to be missing, that album he made with all the love songs, Louis Migel.. besame mucho... can't get better than that!!!I might put that one on the top of my list..

There's a video i'm looking for but don't know what it's called, Miss Root insisted we watch shortly after we got her home,That was some day, with the hospice counciler insisting she was manipulating me into doing what she wanted and that wasn't a good thing.. i finally cut him off.. like i didn't know that? dummy who fucking cares.. she's dieing and anything she wants, she gets, she won't get it much longer.. idiot!!!... with life streaming by from the beginning of man kind.. into modern times and into the future.. just music no words, would love to find it.. it's here, maybe miss Cassie can help me find it.. There's also the video from when she was in N.Y. at the gallery opening to Gleb's one man show of photography, where the majority of the photos are of her.. and she was so funny flirting with both Gleb (http://www.glebderujinsky.com/) and Mel.. Oh how I'd Love Mel to come.. Mel Sokolski (http://www.sokolsky.com/)

Regardless who come to the day of remembrance, I will be here with the crew, and That is what counts..

Has anything changed? HUM... I think not
