New Year's Color


Happy New Year. Having been busy with festivities and some illustration jobs, I’ve neglected my blog, along with some other important things. Which brings me to the subject of today’s post. One of my New Years Resolutions is to post more regularly. Being self employed, I struggle with knowing what I should work on. I often find myself with 3 or 4 paintings or ideas that I am wanting to work on, self promotion that I need to do, keeping my illustration work up, updating my digital skills, posting on my blog and a host of other projects and demands. It is not uncommon for me to dither about what to do, finally decide on something and after a half hour, start worrying about another thing I should be doing and start on that and then wonder if that is really the best use of my time . . . at the end of the day I have wasted most of the day switching gears and sitting trying to decide what to do.

So! here is my solution!


One of the values of scheduling so tightly like this is that I can concentrate on one thing and not worry about other things, knowing that I have scheduled time for them. I know, this is pretty boring, but I thought the schedule with all the color looked so cool, I would show it to you. I’m curious if other artists have the some problem and if so, how you deal with it.
