First step to selling a piece of art is producing art, right?
A bit harder than it sounds; I haven't drawn, seriously, since second year of college, quite a few years ago. While I studied Art and Design, I took the specific concentration of Graphic Design and as soon as the typography classes rolled in, art for arts sake took a backseat (and relegated only to doodles).
2008 was an uneventful year (as years go). I only realized my drive to finish some of the goals of my life late in the year, so the rest of the year before that I didn't do much. I sat around. I played video games. I was content, but not happy.
Next year will be different.
Okay, rather silly of me to assume that being awesome could happen overnight. On one hand, I've been thinking about my life goals a lot (I know! Big step woo!) but really, it's hard to work on climbing a mountain when I'm still broke and still trying to figure out my life.
I've done miniscule progress to all my goals in the last few days, at least:
What I'd rather be doing is traveling, reading, relaxing, building my dream house in the middle of nowhere, and running into the woods to have all sorts of adventures like when I was a kid.
Sadly, my job as a web designer keeps me chained to my desk, my addiction to video games keeps me from the outdoors, my job keeps me from traveling, and my sad lack of money keeps me from building my dream home. Oy.
This is me, trying to change this.
