Happy (Belated) New Year, Blog Readers

Happy 2015! I spent the first afternoon of the new year driving around in the country taking pictures. I happened upon some juvenile bald eagles – these two were particularly eye catching with their game of tag above my head. There were 7 altogether, and a short while later I spotted a couple adult bald eagles in the vicinity.
I’ve made many resolutions (which, to be honest, I do monthly, and I’m not sure they ever stick, but I try). I’ll keep them to myself so you’ll never know if I failed or not! Lots of neat things in store on my end this year: I’ve got some exciting animation work underway, plus an exhibit coming up next month at the Carriage Factory Art Gallery in Newton, KS. My first art fair acceptance letter came in from the Des Moines Summer Arts Festival which was one of my best shows in the last year I did it. I also signed up for my first half marathon so that will have me doing lots of running (which I love to do, but often find time related work excuses not to). Many more things will come up I’m sure and I’ll share them here.
By the way, I definitely haven’t been keeping up on my blogging (that time thing…), and there are now so many social media options that its hard to keep them all maintained. I have been utilizing Instagram lately (since I finally figured out how to use it). That’s kind of fun, being a person who loves to look at pictures. You can find me at http://instagram.com/angiepickman/. And of course, I try to keep my facebook page updated as well: https://www.facebook.com/cutpaperart.
My best wishes to you all in the new year. Thanks for following along!
