As the first week of 2020 comes to a close in a few days I was thinking back on last year and what I did and did not do.
What I did do was set a few meh goals that I never followed through on. What I did not do was set any goals that I held myself to for any length of time.

This year I would like to do it differently. I am behind in starting as it is already almost 7 days in BUT it is better that I start on day 7 then not starting at all.

I have broken my goals down into 3 categories. Art, Dolls, and Personal.
Each section has a few goals each that I will strive to achieve.
Each has separate timelines which is part of why I split them apart that way.


ART
Some of these goals cross over and work with each other to become a reality. I feel this section is really ambitious and feel I will struggle greatly.

**Improve my Anatomy, Composition, Design and Colour skills
I will in January complete 4 drawings focused on each item, might do them as Draw this again taking older art from my gallery and redrawing them again.

**Sketch Daily focusing on a topic for the day.
I do not have a topic list to pull from these topics will be thing such as one day I will draw hands, another feet, another day eyes, ect. Each sketch page will be timed for 30 to 60 mins long. I will be posting photos of these at least once a week somewhere.

**50 Complete works.
Completed works, These will be anything from traditional work to digital work to animations. I need to improve on all fronts so they will vary. I hope no one minds.
The reason there are 50 and not 52 is because there are only 51 weeks left this year and in march I will be dead to the world for a few days and will probably not want to do shit.

**Start taking commissions again.
Probably 1 to 3 a month, Some of these will count toward my 50 Completed works, not all but a few will.
I will be figuring this all out when I get to it.

**Start Oil Painting again.
I miss playing with paint. I will start that up again this summer if everything goes well. My supplies are currently in storage, and due to work I am still really busy and will be until my leave at the end of March. I dont think I have ever mentioned on this site that I love working in oils and honestly havent worked with them in a decade. 2020 is a great new start i think.


DOLLS
The doll list is much shorter as they take longer to do then things with the Art list. I probably can do more, but I want to keep it on the conservative side so I am more likely to get things done.

**Complete 1 custom fashion doll a month.
I have about 6 dolls in some state of completion. Some are simple repaints with new clothes planned, others are complete modifications.
Some of the dolls as I finish them will go up for sale, I will post information on that later when I get to finishing them. I choose 1 a month so I have time between all the other stuff I want to complete.
**Get my resin dusted off and taken care of.
My BJD collection is sadly neglected and has been for years, right now 4 of 6 that I have out are bald because my new kitten decided to eat their wigs... So that is one thing I have to fix, some need repainting, one doll is lazy eyed because the eye putty is lose... So yeah not really a time line sort of thing but something to focus on trying to get done by the end of the year.


PERSONAL
These are for general note and to help keep track of where I am. My spouse and I know all the details and are working on making it all happen.
**Pay off a few credit cards
**Save a set amount of $
**Start and hopefully buy a house
**Spend too much at Ikea for pending family expansion.
**Buy one of 3 things at this years christmas market that are all quite pricy.
**Restart my monthly healthy challenge but I think I will do bimonthly. Starting in Feb.
In 2017 I chose to give up something every month for a consecutive 12 month time. Jan was burgers, Feb was McDonalds, Mar was the worst with Soda, Apr I did Pizza. I chose not to continue again past that but I did succeed in each item and honestly I still do not drink nearly as much soda as I did before, the rest went back to how it was before.
