Coolum Beach Panorama - oil on canvas 610 mm x 1210 mm
A few years ago, I compiled a list for the year summarising my activities for the year. I decided to do one for 2016. (The highlighted text indicates a link to the relevant blog post.)
- Exhibitions: Rotary Art Spectacular 2016; Lethbridge 10,000; Botanique
- I've written 52 Blog posts here on Art Matters - and kept to my plan of posting an average of one per week.
-Recreating Family memories – I painted images from a family album as a Christmas gift.
-Red Bubble – my online shop was set up showcasing several products with images of my work.
-Etsy – new paintings were added throughout the year
-Website makeover – predictably this was a time sink, although it was worthwhile in the end.
-Experimentation with process videos – ongoing – there's lots to learn...
-Portraits – continued exploration – my Portrait of Dan won a prize at Nundah Art Exhibition – and experiments with a new surface – Ampersand Claybord
-Tasmania – a wonderful short, inspiring holiday
-Illustration commission to re-create old photographs for the Highlands House commemorative booklet.
-Plein air sketching throughout the year – not as often as I would have liked, perhaps something to plan for in 2017.
May your new year be filled with happiness and an abundance of creativity.
