The first image I posted was two post later and a small illustration I did for a kayak publication;
I think I was hoping it would be a good platform to encourage me to do more art work.
In that sense it has work.
I started at the very beginning posting some of my cartoons for a Sherlock Holmes group I belonged. Then in May of 2009 I started an ambitious project of trying to do a tree a day for a year to improve my tree drawings.
The announcement came in this form.
I guess the plan worked in many ways. Although It got spread over more than a year my trees got better and I ended up doing over 370 drawings that I ended up calling 'QS' for quick sketch.
I think, besides an avenue for my art I wanted to have the blog be somewhere I could post things I found interesting, whether it be a personal matter like family events or other artist or topics I found interesting.
My most prolific year had 207 posts, me least 105.
But the amount posted here also changed when I started two other blogs on subjects I found interesting that meant I did not post as often here.
My daughter probably got more post here than any other topic. It was a good space to catalog our 'expeditions'.
Although the blog would be in existence for almost a year before I would start posting her here.
One of the first would be her having her first high tea in London 2010
Social media like 'facebook' has really changed the world of blogging I would imagine.
But even though I was unsure how I would like it in the beginning I ended up loving the format.
Some times my other blogs take time away from this one, but I do try to make an appearence here at least a few times a month.
So I hope it has been as much fun for you, both my readers, as it has been for me.
See ya next time I have something to say.
