Weekly Goals - March 25-April 1
It’s been a month since I posted my weekly goals. I’m not sure what happened to March. Getting sick really slowed me down. It’s been 3 weeks and I’m still fighting a cold.
Although I looked over the list I posted on February 28 and I didn’t do to bad on that list and I have accomplished quite a bit more in addition. Most notably I created a really great portfolio now that my images are all organized and I sent it off to a local gallery that was specifically looking for fiber artists. Even if nothing comes of it I feel it was a great accomplishment to get the portfolio finished. I’ve entered a few shows, shipped some quilts, updated my resume, artist statement and bio and also did some work for some other opportunities that have come my way. Seems I’ve been in the office almost every day the past month.
I have a long list of other things I want to do on the business side but I’m also really wanting to spend some quality time in my studio. Last week I designed and pieced Structures #58. I have ideas to continue with that series but I made a piece that was to be the start of a new series while in Idaho last October with Nancy Crow and I really want to get going on my ideas. I have piece #2 of this series on my design wall and I started sewing it together today.
So my goals for the next week are as follows:
- Finish sewing together quilt #2 in the new series.
- Design and start sewing quilt #3 in the new series.
- Do another Plains drawing.
- Organize my office. Last weekend I finally bought some shelves to finish organizing my art business stuff and it’s time to get things on the shelves.
So very little business stuff other than the organizing. I need a break as I’ve been spending more than 1/2 of my time on the business and it’s time to rebalance and just focus on the artwork for a while.
