Ever notice how all those lists appear at this time of year? Here are two lists of mine:
1. Some of the things I did in 2010 that are worth noting:
Didn’t accept any more weird sweaters from my knitting needles – instead I ripped all the ones that were heading in the wrong direction.
Painted 2 more murals (So what if one is on my studio door? It is still a mural!)
Visited (and fell head-over-heels in love with) North Carolina
Trained for and completed the 21-Mile Big Sur Power Walk
Wrote and published regular articles on art in the Kaweah Commonwealth
2. Some things I hope for in 2011:
A working website
A working garage door opener
Another mural (or 3 or 4?)
Continued excellence in knitting (and finishing all those recalcitrant sweaters)
Continued weeding out of Stuff (I might have whatever is the opposite of that Hoarding problem)
A new fitness goal that doesn’t involve blisters or plantar fasciitis or 10+ hours a week when I should be painting
Business growth – increased skill, blog readers, customers, students, good ideas, pencil commissions (remember, I LOVE to draw!) and income
Of course there are piles of other things on both lists, but this is the very public internet, we all have short attention spans, and now I have to show you a piece of art because this is an art blog, not a place for personal aggrandizement. (Sorry – I just wanted to use another Big Word – can you find and understand the first one?)
Untitled (because Cotton Fleece is too obvious and A Good Yarn is taken), colored pencil, 9″x12″, private collection, took 4 years to complete, phew.
