I am hoping to put more of my art on my blog. I know I can do this here at Yahoo! but other places I post my blog will be without the image. This is a collage I did 4 years ago. It is 9\”x12\” and uses many different techniques and media.
What a great idea! Not a verbal blogging, but a pictorial blogging of a day in the life of the photographer. I am sure this has been done for the famous and for the professional photographer but Yahoo 360 is promoting it for the average 360 user.

Okay, I admit. I made dinner – a really good turkey bolognese sauce and whole wheat spaghetti. I drank half of a bottle of Shiraz. I had to pick up my daughter from work at 3.

I sometimes wonder where my creativity goes. I love to make things. I have all the “stuff” but seldom get things done. How does one tap the creative juices and let the flow freely?

Submit art and get published. To this end, I am going to try to create something at least three days a… Continue reading Aspirations for 2006
Here are my aspirations from last year. I have a section below that sort of lists where I went with them. Have my art published somewhere. I am aiming for print publication but in an online zine will work also. Help the twins make the transition from high school to college smoothly.
