New Years.....Resolutions? Or not??

With the new year looming just off in the distance....my thoughts turn to resolutions. Do you make resolutions, or rather the question should be, do you keep them?

Some people vow to not make resolutions, but where is the fun in that!?!

Well, myself, I like to make resolutions, and no, I am not making mine about eating healthier and going to the gym. Although truth be told, a trip to the gym probably couldn't hurt. No, my resolutions have to deal with art.. the making of it, the showing of it, and just plain pleasure of sharing it with other people.

Art to me.. and that's Art with a capitol "A", isn't just what you see in a gallery or museum. It's not something only "serious" artists do. Art permeates all areas of our lives, locally and globally. Because that video game you are hooked on, "sweet", was designed by an artist; the chair you sit in to watch your favorite TV shows, mine are Big Bang Theory and the Millers, or that hoodie you just can't take off, an artist of some type had their hand in creating it.

So for your new years resolutions for 2014, resolve to notice the Art in your lives!
You'll be glad you did! And this one is easy to keep.

Happy New Years!!
