I'm hoping to give art and - specifically - making some money from art, a try during 2018. It's still not certain that I will get the chance to do this, but I'm thinking the chances I follow through will increase if I make my plans public. Kind of like when people buy an expensive membership to the gym to motivate them exercising more often and then they don't, anyway. 

Hopefully documenting my endevours or lack thereof will work as a kick in the butt. Plus I'll learn how this forum's blog tools work. Yay. 

So i had a biiiig birthday (over a year ago) and treated myself to a Cintiq Companion - so over the top for my needs or skills but hey, i work i deserved a treat. 

Since then i've drawn nothing, nada, zilch. I've got a £1600 piece of kit that is pushed up against the wall. 

I made it my mission this year to start to draw, and I downloaded a few cheaper art programmes. And were into June now, and still nada, nothing, zilch. I picked the pen up the other day and started to draw a face, well the shape of a face. It was rubbish. 

Deleted it and put the cintiq back up against the wall. 

I will try harder, i don't know how many times i'll say that, but if i put it all here, i might try harder.
