A personal reflection:
One of the reasons I decided to take part in this residency was to make some important decisions about where to take my art career, and to make a solid plan of how to move forward.
As it stands, with the jobs and interests I have I can see three clear routes for myself ahead: Arts education as an organiser, arts education as a freelance artist, or working as an artist.
I would like to always keep these things in my portfolio of activities, plus add other things, but I feel I need to focus my energy and make some clear goals.
At the moment I am really drawn to concentrating more on promoting my own artwork but want to keep a strong link with arts education because I love being involved with it so much.
and this combination in many ways would be perfect; it would allow me to keep my art practice pure in it’s vision but at the same time exercise my passion for promoting engagement in arts.
So, now that is decided it is time to start thinking of a plan…
