The end of one year is a good time to reflect on the past year and set goals for the next year. I have decided my theme for next year is going to be pushing the boundaries, trying new things.
As you know we are doing 2 legs of the Clipper round the world yacht race and that is certainly pushing the boundaries (of sanity!). Tragically in this year's Sydney to Hobart yacht race 2 people lost their lives in separate accidents. Next year we will be in the same water, at the same time as that blue water classic race, just going in the opposite direction. It really makes you think that you might as well push the boundaries and live life to the full as you never know, what is around the next corner.
As for my art, each month I want to try to push myself in some way. Try a different technique, that I may, or may not be able to incorporate in my art.
Obviously thread painting will be my mainstay but you can't keep just doing exactly the same thing....
