Parka's New Year resolutions for 2010

Submitted by on

I shall keep this year's shorter and hopefully more achievable.

1. Review more Japanese art books

I hope to do that without breaking the bank, which is going to be very difficult. If you know of any good or upcoming Japanese art books, I'm always interested to know.

2. Learn Japanese

This will be incredibly helpful when I'm reading Japanese books. Now I'm more like looking. It will help with my Japanese animes as well.

3. Draw more

Same as last year.

Looking back at 2009

Submitted by on

Looking back at my New Year resolutions from 2009, I'm amazed that I fulfilled 4 out of 5 of them. It helps that they aren't that difficult to start with.

Let me reflect on them one by one.

Do more art book reviews

I'm very pleased to be able to get my hands on so many books to review. Most of the books are bought and borrowed, with a small handful sponsored. I also met a new friend who collects art books. Borrowed lots of books from him and saved lots of money.
