Hey everyone! Welcome to another newsletter! This week, it has been extremely wild trying to deliver packages for Amazon in this Arizona heat of 112 degrees. Please you guys, drink water. Loading up my vehicle with packages with no food + not that much water in my system almost made me want to pass out in the parking lot. I don't even want to think about what could've happened.
And I FINALLY was able to make a reel/video about my attendance to The Pancakes & Booze Art Walk in Phoenix, Arizona as part of the agreement for my acceptance. All the info is in the flyer so I don't need to write it all out again. But for more information like parking and cover charges. you can find here:

If you visit @AudreyalKoinva on Instagram, you would see me working on The Hopi Antelope Painting. I Pray for, and think of others while I'm working on this piece. If you check out my latest episode on Audie's Art Struggles, you would hear all my dilemma's (Art Struggles) that I'm going through. I have mentioned this particular piece in my latest episode; of one of the materials I purchased FOR this painting. I haven't used it yet, but I hope I get to use it today after writing and publishing this newsletter.
The second photo you see is a much smaller piece painted on heavy weight 9" x 12" paper for acrylic painting. I wanted to incorporate strong colors that represent 'protectors', and possibly put The Hopi Buffalo design on it. It's going to be a lot of linework in that one but, it's going to turn out amazing. I can already see it. The next painting I want to work on is a Quail design on the same color pallet as the Antelope (pictured above). Quails and Owls are my favorite birds. I adore Quails because they always travel in pairs. I want to educate and increase knowledge to the people about nature in Arizona. I bet not a whole lot of people acknowledge the Quails when they try to hurriedly run across the street. I want people to mind them more and appreciate their existence when seeing them.
There's A LOT going on upstairs in my head, and I'm hoping I can do everything I need to do in the times they need to get done. I had to re-read emails over and over a number of times just to see I had all the information I needed to only find out I was missing about 4 to 5 more other things. Great! Perfect! No harm done! Let's not panic. I'm trying very hard not to lose my 'ish' and... (takes a deep breath)... (exhale)... enjoy... THE PROCESS!! O_o
Even though I have all things ahead of me, I have three full days of working my Amazon blocks. I hope everything will work out smoothly for me with not much hassle in getting every single package delivered safely. And I'm talking about MY safety.
I know many of us out there that have much more expansion within our Spirit, let's not allow the modern world dictate too much of ourselves. It's not worth losing ourselves over money. If you listen to my latest episode listed above, I talk about what we do IS enough. We waste our valueable energies on things that really don't matter to them after our (let's call them) SHIFT is over. All they care about is if we will show up FOR THEM tomorrow.
If we can keep ourselves in line FOR THEM, we should do it THE MOST for OURSELVES. And that should be the bottom line. My issue is, is that I am DRAINED at the end of my four hour Amazon block. It's ridiculous. I give them the most of myself, plus to many other things. But because deep down in my Spirit, I don't want to work FOR Amazon, they've already harvested my energy enough to keep THEMSELVES going. What I have to do is protect myself better so that I could TAKE MYSELF BACK and to KEEP GOING FOR ME. And you should too!
