2017-2019 STATS
January 16, 2017...the day I posted my first ever oil painting of a dog, Gerry the French Bulldog. I had also just gotten a smart phone, and was learning how to take a selfie....hence the creepy eyeballs! My oh my, there's been a lot of water under the bridge since then....or in my case, a lot of paint under my nails since then.
Fast forward about 3 years to Christmas 2019, when I got to meet the dog that got it all started, Gerry.
With any job, it's vital to look back and document the things you have accomplished, so you can determine how far you've come and point yourself where you'd like to go. I forced myself to do this today, not to brag, but to try to measure and predict where I am going, and where I'd like to go with my art practice. Obviously, no one can predict the future, but sometimes, it just feels good to see some stats.
So here are my stats..2017, when my youngest son started kindergarten until now. Accomplished by working 15-25 hours a week.
