razielimSFC #2 - "In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private."
My goal last year was very concrete - paint 300 illustrations or die trying. I did not die, therefore I completed the goal, and with time to spare. You can check all of those out here and here. (I had to break it up because the site template only allows 250 images per page, as I found out in the fall.)
This year, my goal is a little more nebulous.
I'm going to take my newfound discipline, and use it as a building block to deliver less paintings, but of better quality. I would like, by the end of 2022, to replace my portfolio entirely, with better paintings than the ones I have up now. I want each and every painting on that page, no matter how proud I am of it, to be replaced by a better one.
Most of the best paintings I do come from commissions, fests, and collaborations with fellow artists, of course, and the more excited I am about the project, the better the result.
So I'll be on the lookout for opportunities that, to borrow a phrase from YWA, "meet my appropriate edge." That is to say, the maximum amount of challenge with the maximum amount of excitement for the subject.
If you'd like to challenge yourself with me via some sort of collab on a mutual interest, hit me up!
