Habit of Art turns one


A year ago today, I wrote my first post for Habit of Art.  My purpose in starting a new blog was to talk about art.  289 posts later, I feel like I have only scratched the surface.

What I've learned along the way . . .
the world is smaller than you think
blogging every day is harder than flossing every day
technology will inevitably fail you at the most inopportune moment- multiple times
there are a lot of talented people out there
who don't get enough credit
some of the most encouraging words can come from strangers
i love what i do

Thanks for reading.
(Check back tomorrow for the birthday giveaway!)

  4. Whoo hoo! Happy blog-birthday. It's been a pleasure to follow your blog as a native Northwest girl (yeah, Seattle!), a fellow member of a mixed-race family, and a fan of your work. It takes a lot of discipline to write as consistently as you have. You should be proud!
