I have been challenged to decide what was the best thing I did in 2009 regarding my art life...It was to paint on a regular basis. Painting daily was not always possible, so I accepted Lori Woodward's challenge on Twitter to paint at least 20 hrs a week. This was more doable and yet a great challenge. I often surpassed those hours in spite of my son's wedding here, guests, managing my husband's business, serving as President of WAOW, and running the house.
I learned to be more focused and my painting improved. I also painted in larger formats and began a series of historical paintings...all have been great learning experiences.
I was surprised how many hrs I did paint...more than 20 per week on average.
My word of the year for 2010 is "Change"...so I will see what happens...
Happy New Year!
