How many of you made New Year’s resolutions?

In addition to getting healthy, making more time for family, collaborating on projects I love and washing my hair less…I decided it was time to return to the studio and make some art again. I spend a lot of time online. Too much, in fact. I wake up and fall asleep to a screen, I tweet, I instagram, I facebook, I pin. I curate and I design, however lately, I’ve been craving more tangible, tactile results…so I decided to sign up for a class, one with room for exploration.

Every Saturday through April I’ll be at SVA, taking an all-day painting class with Seth Michael Forman called Paint Your Own Vision. It’s a real commitment for me, though I’m excited and even a little nervous how it’ll all turn out- it’s quite a departure from the controlled medium of graphic design. Here are a few snapshots of work in progress…what were your New Years resolutions and are you keeping them?
