Yes, I’m blogging and I have a million things to say.<\/b><\/p>\n

(1)<\/b> My eternal GMAT studying is coming together. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Albeit a long tunnel.<\/p>\n

(2)<\/b> I’ve reached 300 sales on Etsy<\/a>. I still remember when I had only 6 sales. I will also likely be signing a contract with an art publisher and distributor on Monday.<\/p>\n

(3)<\/b> My little sister graduated from high school with flying colours and is attending the University of Toronto for the Rotman Commerce Program. She is brilliant and I am so happy for her. Academics are sexy.<\/p>\n

(4)<\/b> The photo below are of fuzzy wild horses from ICELAND. Without fail, I set aside a budget to travel every year but every now and then, I live vicariously through another traveler who has seen a place that I desire but have not seen myself. Iceland is one of those places. I skimmed through his wonky tourist shots and handpicked the ones that had subtle potential for reinvention; to be transformed into a Charlene Precious fine art photograph. It is not typical that I would borrow someone else’s travel photograph to reinvent. (And never another artist’s photograph. Only my non-photographer friends who take photos with little or no thought and simply for keepsake and memories). But if I had to borrow a photograph, it will always be a travel photograph. I have a weakness for them because I simply can’t travel the entire world. Unless of course I wake up absolutely rich and with an immortal soul tomorrow – infinite money and time would enable me to travel the entire world. I’d like that.<\/p>\n

(5)<\/b> I’ve re-written my ABOUT<\/a> page to reflect my general growth in life. I haven’t touched or read this in a year and certain claims were no longer true and some even sounded a bit juvenile. It’s wild to go back and read things that you wrote a year ago and are less than impressed with it now. But at the time, it felt like it was genius. I’m going to go ahead and call it growth. Read<\/a> if you care, otherwise, I don’t mind.<\/p>\n

(6)<\/b> I miss A PHOTO A DAY<\/a> so much, you have no idea. I can’t wait to be back here every day. Please don’t let me go. I will be back with an abundance of beautiful art. I promise.<\/p>\n
