2012 Art Goals

I just spent the last 2 hours working on I'd Rather be in the Studio. Our first art marketing salon starts today, and as co-facilitator, I figured I should be prepared. We're following the outlines from artbizconnection.com, and I encourage you to visit the site and form your own group. I am pumped up! Seriously. It's exciting thinking about the future and what could be if I dedicated more time to marketing.

Some of my 2012 art-related goals:

• Create lesson plans for teaching art. It started with a meeting I had about instructing an 8-week workshop at The Griffin School next year. I'd like to explore teaching and an 8-week stint will be a great test to see if I can hack it. Plus it'll supplement my ultimate financial goals and the workshop would only be 2 days/week, so manageable without taking away from my current studio schedule.
• I'd like to have my art on display at 10 different venues in 2012 (Etsy is included in the 10 by the way, so I'll be spending a chunk of time getting up to speed.) I was contacted out of the blue yesterday by a gallery north of Dallas to see if I'm interested in participating in a show. I am of course, and will be checking my calendar and inventory today to see if I can swing it, so that's at least 2. (Road trip anyone? Opening is Feb. 28.)
• I'm beginning to work with Master Printer Darin Forehand in Houston. I'd like him to edition a print for me.
• Create new marketing materials. 
• Distribute said marketing materials.
• Redo website so it's easier to maintain.

I have others but they are boring. The ones above are the biggies. If you'd like to swap goals, I'm happy to email you the full list, but I want to see yours.
