Night Owl

Im trying to think of a good first assignment to give myself. Something not too complicated to ease myself into things. If anyone has any ideas feel free to share. If you like or dislike my work feel free to comment but keep in mind I am in a fragile state... ...but not really. I am looking forward to the next 365 pieces of art work to tackle and defeat. I think Its safe to say I wont be getting out much in the next year and that will probably be a good thing on my part. I have accumulated many art books over the years, some I had to part with but I kept hold of my favorites. I hope they will get some good use and maybe at the same time prepare me for all those Art History classes I have yet to take at NSCAD. So heres to a new year. Ive been told by my ten year old son that I am "supposed to" stay up later then the kids at night and that some parents stay up till midnight. This will be a change for him since alot of the time Im asleep by 9pm. So If all else fails I will learn to be a night owl. Goodbye 2010, I wont miss you at all. Well maybe a little.

Art Project

With the New Years ahead Im going to try to be a little more productive this year. Rather then giving up something I am going to work on making something or somethings. Ive given myself an art project, something to keep me focused on what I really want to do. Im going to create an art piece for each day of the year 2011. Thats 365 art pieces. ill document my progress through pictures and try to update regularly. I dont always have access to the internet so keep that in mind when you see days go by without any updates. This will be challenging since I also have to work and have a ten year old and an almost one year old baby. My first piece will be started on New Years day. I will be finishing by 11:59pm that night. Same goes for all the other days. Did I mention Im also broke. So alot of my art works will be eventually done on found objects, now thats real art. Let the journey begin... ...
