January is officially over, and Punxsutawney Phil has predicted six more weeks of winter (i.e. he saw his shadow). Although his history of predictions is ✨questionable✨, he may be right this year, because there are still plenty of low temps and chances of snow on our forecast.
January has been a month of intense creativity for me. Work has been extremely slow (as per usual in January), and although I’m currently very poor, I’m always happiest when I’m not just sitting at my desk painting all day.
Although pet portraits are a great staple for me, I’m hoping for some new opportunities to come my way in this new year.
As I mentioned briefly in a recent post, something I’d love to do more of this year (sort of a New Year’s Resolution™ without calling it a New Year’s Resolution™) is to take more short video clips to document life. I have a grand plan of putting together a wrap/recap/60-second-short of each month, which I’m pretty excited about.
I want to be able to look through them at the end of the year and see the changing seasons (and the changing me!).
