Pierce's Deathline

[Pierce]

By February 1, 2013:

1.Develop a new professional portfolio, shifting my freelance focus from illustration and design for the music industy, to entertainment/fantasy illustration.
As a part of this:
a)Increase study time to a minimum of 2 hours a day – EVERY day – no excuses
b)Participate in as many Bloodsport challenges as possible
c)Create 1-2 personal pieces for a new, dedicated portfolio per month

2.Become financially stable and viable solely off of my work as a freelance artist.

3.Become more organized, efficient, and focused
a) Use my schedule book effectively
b)Set goals for each month, week and day

I've already started clearing mental space and time for the focus and energy I am applying toward this... today is Day 1 of execution.

1 month in! Still pushing!

I have a ton of client work on my plate at the moment (all graphic design ish related) but I've managed to keep my studies up.

For month two I'll be focusing VERY heavily on anatomy with emphasis on Bridgman and figure studies. Also I need to start completing some pieces but I kind of of have to get through this really busy patch before I can seriously focus on more in-depth personal projects.
