Beginning to Take Note

January of a new decade seems like an excellent, albeit typical time to begin something new.  In the past few years I’ve defaulted to not making resolutions due to the high probability of not keeping them.  I’m rethinking that this new year.  It’s not because I’m sure I’ll have more willpower with the ultra-cool sounding “2020” but because there are some things that I still really want to do.  And so, I’m setting out to re-start something with the idea that it may flounder but this time I have my own permission to begin again any day I feel like it.  I don’t have to wait for a January or a 1st or even a Monday.

I’m talking in general about making art as a full-time venture and specifically about getting this blog rolling today.  Henceforth, this “web log” will now be called “Take Note”.  We all know of course that it’s still basically the same thing but I think it sounds better, I love sticky notes and taking note of things and for some reason I like to name stuff.

Saying that I’m going to start doing something seems like enough work for now and next time I’ll start “noting” the things I want to tell you.  I’m not procrastinating.  Really, it’s a plan.  I hope you’ll still come by.
