New Years Resolution

Hellooooo!

Ok, if you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you might know that at the beginning of this year I set myself the goal of doing something arty every day and I failed on the second day (come on - we knew that would happen!). I still kept "trying" when I could be bothered but found myself forcing it and it became something of a chore rather than what I used to love doing.

The past week has been a really good one and I have managed to balance making with my day job successfully. Don't get me wrong, I love my job, everyone who knows me knows that, still it is great to have something that helps you get away from all those worries and hopefully that people enjoy too.

So I am just going to keep trying and not make any promises art-wise because I never keep them...

Paha!

I Can Do This

Me and my clever friend!

Wow! Has it really been that long since I last wrote a blog post?!?!... Apologies. I have been struggling a bit art-wise, but I am trying to fix that, promise!

I am still working on my drawing and I did rent that studio I posted about last time for a few months, however, I ended up having to give that up (it was nice while it lasted!).

Trying to find a work/art balance has been a challenge. I have gained, left and changed my day jobs, meaning I now only have one job at the zoo. You may have noticed that I have had an update on most of my art accounts, which I think was for the best. I have missed blogging, maybe, but I definitely miss my studio more...

Fingers crossed I can keep this up!

Latest From Me.

Hello good people, yes, yes I know, it has been a very long time. Over a year in fact, but alas, I may be back. A lot has changed since I last posted on here. I am now a Fine Art student in my first year at University. I have had several projects so far and like with everything else, I probably should had done this sooner. I thought I would say a little about my current project before I post anything up.

This project is still developing and I’m not a 100% sure where it is going (which isn’t helpful for you guys or my tutors haha). I started off by just creating work because I had to. I initially wanted to carry on with something that I had started in college and create my own God/Icon (this is partly to do with the work posted on here in December 2011, from my Contemporary workshop, which you can have a nosey at if you wish).  Although I was told I should not work as much from my imagination. So I have now moved on to owls. Just owls. My idea is that they have meaning and possibly different meanings to certain people. They can be something that a person can look to for whatever it is that they need.

Well, it has been nice to do this blogging-malarkey. I have a feeling I could be slightly addicted haha! Hopefully I will be able to keep this up.
