New Year

2010 has come and gone, and I'm okay with that. It was really a year of trying to establish a livable income, having graduated from school. I did some neat stuff, like my solo exhibition of new work at KJ's Coffee Bar in downtown Denver - but I didn't really take off with more new pieces like I wish I had.

This year's going to be different! I'm reviving the yearly planner that helped me be so productive while in school. I've got pieces waiting to be scanned and uploaded here or on my site. I'm signing up for Tumblr to upload sketches I like but that I'll probably never take to finish. And I've even got works in progress on my drawing table, just waiting for me to slap some paint on 'em or sharpen up my pencil and get down to the nitty gritty final.

Being a working stiff smothered a lot of my motivation, but I went to art school because I love being creative and actually MAKING art. So my biggest resolution of 2011 is to MAKE art, instead of just thinking about how I wish I was making art.

Here for your viewing enjoyment is a concept I really hope to see completed come mid-2011. My planner will hold me to it.

Later gators,
Elisa
