I'm not making any New Year's Resolutions this year. Here in Australia, we are in the middle of the summer holidays, the kids are visiting their grandparents, and I have a momentary illusion of endless free time! So rather than set myself up for failure, I just want to continue the good habits I started last year - playing cello, learning Photoshop, editing the Drawsketch newsletter before midnight. But if you like a fresh start and drawing is part of your plan for the year, you might like to try one of these Resolutions for Artists.

You'll also find some creative resolutions from our Painting guide, while our Art History guide has a slightly different viewpoint on the issue!

And Happy New Year, everyone! Thank you so much to my loyal readers for your ongoing participation in the site, I always enjoy hearing from you. I hope you will find the site interesting and useful reading with lots of new content for 2007.
