Serena

if you visit my blog, thank you for taking the time to pop on over here. I haven't painted in a while, as I'm studying and working, so that seems to take up a lot of my time as well as family/home life. But I've finished my first semester of study, so have a few weeks spare now, so am going to try and get a few extra paintings done for our local art exhibition that is rapidly approaching.

Today I have finished - Serena

she's 24 x 36 inches

Taking a small break

I am taking a small break from painting at the moment (to give my wrist a bit of much needed TLC), but it's hard to not still do something!! So I've been working on my 2013 goals in my journal. Would love to know if anyone else has a journal and if they write down their goals.

 

 

 

The picture on the left was drawn with pencil, while on a plane ride (to somewhere - can't remember) in Oct last year, so I've just cut and glued it into my journal.

I have been writing down goals for about 3+ years now, but I used to just write them down in the back of my diary. This year I thought why not pretty those goals up.

I find that writing goals down is very powerful.

I try to make the goals very specific and small.. (ie small steps to a bigger picture).

Please leave a comment and a link to what you do with your goals.
