Happy New Year everyone! Can you believe another year has come and gone and it’s already 2014? Does anyone have any new year’s resolutions? I don’t usually do them, but I decided to set a goal for myself in the new year of making more art. A huge part of drawing is being a keen observer, and I feel like I haven’t just sat down and practiced observing and drawing what I observe very much lately. Back when I was in college I did this almost every day since I was an art major, and I miss it. So I’m going out to buy a new sketchbook and hopefully fill it with lots of sketches of goldfish! Drawing is a skill and if you don’t use it, you lose it… so it’s important to keep in practice. I also find drawing to have a calming effect, which I sure could use right now with how hectic and busy life has been! In addition to drawing, I’d also like to explore clay sculpting and, of course, photography. I hope to buy more lenses for my camera and experiment with different photography techniques. So you can look forward to more art from me in the future!
Setting a New Year’s Resolution is easy when you’re a goldfish. |
Don’t forget you can still get the 2014 Solid Gold calendar here to help plan out and keep track of your New Year’s Resolutions. 😉

Happy New Year! I hope you, your family and your goldfish have a wonderful 2014!!!
I don’t make new year resolutions, but if I did it would probably be to become more knowledgeable about fishkeeping, to get more goldfish, and to try get better at doing diy projects for my fish. 🙂
I like your resolutions. I’d like to see more of your artwork. I actually want to commission one of those goldfish portraits you do for people in the very near future as well! 🙂
That’s a great thing to strive for!:)
