Accomplishments…

Every year, as reminded by Alyson B.Stanfield, I write a list of my art-related accomplishments… Because it is so easy to concentrate on the things that I have NOT done…! It’s important to recognise the things that WERE accomplished… So, here they are..!

In 2010 I…

-got over 500 new fans,
