I know a lot of people think New Years resolutions are silly.

I don’t think I am one of those people.

I am a goal person.

I have always set goals for myself throughout my life, they give me a focus.

If I achieve it great, but really the aim is more what I am after.

This last year was tough in the US.

This last year was good for my art.

I am heartbroken daily with the outpouring of depressing news.

I am an optimistic person.

Right now, it feels tough.

I feel as though I am running in circles.

My aim for 2017 will be to unlock the circles.

I will have an even better year in art.

Through my art, I will help make change.
