Mike Rowe: Dirty Jobs

I love watching the Discovery Channel, especially the show Dirty Jobs hosted by Mike Rowe. They are having a portrait contest and you can submit until Dec 5, and the winner will be announced Dec 19. It is a really great show! Here is my entry with the good ol' oil rub technique and collage garbage.

Cat Scott said...: I LOVE MIKE ROWE (and that show is definitely a lazy day pleasure). I might have to get involved in this. Thanks for the info!; 1:30 PM
Cat Scott said...: I can't find any info on the contest... can you post a link?; 1:47 PM
Heather Heckel said...: here's the link:
http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/dirtyjobs/dirty-fun/mike-art/mike-art.html

or you can go to discoverychannel.com , dirty jobs , and it is one of the scrolling sections at the top of the page along with letters to Mike and facts, etc.

you have to register with Discovery, their link didn't work, but their "MikeFanArt" link will give you an alternative way to get there.; 8:15 PM

HOW TO FEEL MISERABLE AS AN ARTIST

Constantly compare yourself to other artists.
Talk to your family about what you do and expect them to cheer you on.
Base the success of your entire career on one project.
Stick with what you know.
Undervalue your expertise
Let money dictate what you do.
Bow to Societal Pressures.
Only do work that your family would love.
Do whatever the client/customer/gallery owner/patron/investor asks.
Set unachievable/overwhelming goals. To be accomplished by tomorrow.

thank you, Starbuck!
