Resolutions?

I hate resolutions. They are only made to be broken and everyone has the same ones; lose weight, make more money, achieve family harmony, etc. I'm curious if there are any statistics about the percentage of resolutions that have already been broken one week into the year?

That said, 2010 was not the greatest year for me, so 2011 holds a lot of promise. Already I have been blessed by an old friend and I am about to register as a full time student in order to finish my Graphic Design degree by May, then my Web Publishing certificate by December.

The blog takes it's name from changes in life. I have always exercised my creative streak in various media, but a decision to leave the corporate world and pursue Graphic Design as truly been...a change of art.

I have much hope for more good things in 2011 and my wish to you is the same. May 2011 be a productive year which takes you in new artistic directions!

Vintage Christmas




Before I get on with the New Year I want to post some art from 2010. A friend is a HUGE Tim Holtz fan and recently had an opportunity to take a shadow box class with him. She came back full of new ideas and put together a Christmas themed shadow box. Hers had lights and all kinds of fun things, but I had some vintage memorabilia that I wanted to use in mine:





So along comes a goody box from my sister, and what do I find inside?

Well, I guess you can say we have similar tastes. AND that great minds think alike!
