Today I kicked off the new year staying home from work to work on my ART.  It was so nice to have a full day when all I had to worry about was  which painting was I going to work on.  I ended up working on several canvases but,  spent the good part of the day working on one of my cityscape’s which will be part of a series for the new year.   Here’s a pic of the current progress on the city scape (no title for it yet.)  

I am still tying to figure out my New Years resolutions but am happy when I think about 2009 as it was  a good year.  My second daughter was born and I had a successful year with my art.

A  few of the highlights were as follows:
An exhibit at Bass Concert Hall, Painting in the juried 32 nd annualAustin Visual Arts Alliance show, East End Gallery exhibition,  displayed numerous works in various locations throughout the Central Tx area.  I also found a printer(Winberg Gallery in Georgetown)  to produce my fine art reproductions(Giclees).  Started this blog, learned how to tweet and book da face..lol…Facebook which was a challenge for me.  Hell 10 years ago I didn’t know how to turn on  a computer let alone surf the web.  Now I am riding the crest of the wave and hanging 10 fingers on the keyboards. 

 So when I think about how far I have come and where I am headed I get excited!  I think 2010 will be an even better year than ‘09.  I hope  you will follow my blog and my journey to being a full time artist.  Thanks to all who read these words and taking the time to view my artwork.  I am honored and blessed to have such great fans, friends,  and family.
