OK, I decided that I am going to move forward and take my good friend/adopted sister Jenny Len’s advice and tell the world my stories and accomplishments and get my brown bootie in gear!
I created a group on Facebook entitled “STARVING ARTIST/CHISME”. The focus of this group is to promote myself as well as fellow artist (in any creative form… even from beyond the after life if the is such : )~
The idea is to let our friends, family members, lovers, partners, husbands, wives, ex-loves, ex-partners, ex-husbands, ex-wives…(you get the point) and the world what we are doing and how we can help each other. I am blessed to be surrounded by so many gifted and talented people. I can honestly say my life has been better than any trip to Disneyland! With sooooo many crazy and wild experiences in my life I know that these have shaped me into the person I am today. Creative, fun and really, really, really loving every minute of my life... well except when UCLA loses in football and basketball.
So I will be faithful to this venture and hope that people are reading it and will participate in the great fun and interesting things we can find out about each other. I always wanted to write a book so I guess this would prep me for that part of my future.
Here are a few pictures from my long time friend Pleasant Gehman’s movie screening of “STUCK” on February 3rd, 2010. It was an honor to be with such fun people! Karen Black, Jane Wieland… to name a few (I wonder if Jane would remember me if I walked up to her that nite).
The gang as we wait for the Gold Line before the big screening ... Ronn Savala, Jonnie Carrillo (the up and coming hair stylist to the stars), and the well educated James Szabo... what a mug!
Jonnie Carrillo, ME (Mark A. Martinez) and Mr. James Szabo in the mug shot line!
Won't you be afraid to run into this characters at your local Costco?
