I have been spending my weekends and evenings sketching and painting since the New Year. Seeing yet another year pass where I didn't chase after my dreams got to me this year. Enough to make some serious changes in my schedule. In fact, right now my job is just make stuff, as much stuff as possible, as quickly as possible and have fun doing it. If it's not good enough yet, it will be soon because eventually I will find my stride, I will develop my language in paint and pen. Just like I did with block printing. I am jumping in and doing my job, making and submitting. I'm out to find my joy and that's some serious business and there is no time to waste!
I bought the book,
I Just Like to Make Things
by Lila Rogers
for my Kindle the other day, I'm thinking I may need to order a real copy of it soon! (Sometimes that happens when I buy an artsy book, I need to hold it in my hands!) I just started reading it and it's already kicking my brain into gear and has me super excited about illustrating, painting and playing!
Has the new year brought a new resolve for your career?
