Positivity

So, this weekend might have been a turning point for me.
I say "might" because I tend to get overly excited at the onslaught of things reminiscent of resolutions, only to turn back to my evil ways. Heh.

Well, this weekend I painted my first watercolor since high school. I really liked it, and was inspired to continue my artistic adventure. In fact, I have decided that I should try to make money off of my creations. I'll keep myself realistic and not wish to make millions of dollars, but a few hundred a year might not be unreasonable.

I have been disappointed with myself for not continuing to draw and paint. I speak about my art with regret, and resignation. Well, I'm done with that. I've found a hope, a bliss, to strive for. It'll take determination, and time, and money to begin with. It's all very exciting, and very nerve wracking. But I'm up for this challenge. I know my art improves the more I practice. Now I actually have a desire to practice. I am most proud of my artistic achievements, of my creations. I am going to do what makes me feel proud and happy with myself. There can't be anything wrong with that. Right?

I'm looking forward to experimenting with the different media, and tackling new subject matter. This should prove to be tons of fun!
I don't think I've been this happy or excited about anything in a very long time.
Wish me luck.
