Prepared for 2012

January 17, 2012

The process of setting up goals to me, is much like my preparation for creating a new painting or two or three…

It starts with a spark…dream, experience, a place, an idea.

I write down some words, do some sketches, think about colors or not.

I gather the materials and then the deep stuff starts, excitement builds, frustrations set in, more thought processes, action accumulates and then finally, after many tweeks, starts and stops.

Voila, I have a finished painting!

So much like the art-making process, is my goal setting process.

This year, it took a little  longer than usual to do this. I’m not sure if it’s because I took my time and thought about it, or the fear factor! So finally, I’m ready to release it so that the action can begin!


Goals/Resolutions:

-Experiment more with my art;

– Create one new workshop;

-Create an e-book;

-Exercise and take better care of myself;

-Create a video (Me/Art);

-Teach a class/workshop abroad;

-Exhibit in gallery at least once this year;

-Create and sell more art than last year;

-Connect and collaborate more with other artists.

So with a lot of courage, tenacity and time,  begins the ride of goal doing. I am  prepared.  Are you?

      Thanks Linda. Setting goals, makes me try harder, than I would normally…waiting for some studio shots from you, too! 🙂
