The Next Step

Today was the first official day of the summer! 3।5 months to do absolutely nothing.... kind of.

I cleaned up the mess my charcoal had made from all the work I had been doing at home. I cleaned up the paint from the last 3D Design project, and sucessfully clogged the sink. yey for acrylics. *tiny flag wave*

I haven't decided yet if over the summer I'm going to try to produce works that I can potentially sell, or if I should just get another job like a normal person. I already work one job and I'm picking up an internship for Lotus Arts Studio. The owner (who also happens to be my mom) needs help with maintaining her webpage, creating and getting fliers circulated about her next dance session and bookkeeping. But I have no doubt that she will keep me busy doing graphic work for her all summer with enough to allow me to make a decent portfolio!

As far as the job/artwork goes, I will attempt to get another job, as well as sell my artwork. The art will most likely be posted here as well as on Etsy.com. I may even enter a show or two over the summer. My goal this year was to be in 4 shows. so far I have 0/4. But the year will go on! I am definately putting some of my photo work in a student show when i get back for the Fall semester.

Just so you know (for the few of you who stumble upon my blog), I am going to be posting more artwork as I get it photographed and scanned. A lot of what I have right now is photographs. The 3D design class I took wasn't very productive as far as getting works I can be proud of. However, I learned a great deal from the class and will take what I learned on to the next level with me.

Stay tuned for Photo 1 extravaganzas from my design table
