create three beautiful things this year that require more than one week of effort

I’ve drawn forty of the exercises from the Betty Edwards book, and I’ve taken a dozen photographs that I like. I also helped to make our annual (and beautiful) Mindfest happen this year.

Decorate the office at the Museum

I decorated the room that is a shared space for the floor staff and other staff at the Museum. I’m not quite done yet, but I’ve put in well over a week’s effort at this project.

Create the “Simone’s Day Off” blog

This didn’t take quite a week to create, but I will work on it, off and on over the next few months.

I’m immersed in a beautiful world…every morning I walk through the grounds of the Kimbell Art Museum and the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth on my way to work. The air in my house is full of beautiful sounds. I have collected thousands of recordings of some of the best music (mostly jazz) created in the twentieth century. I would like to contribute to the balance of beautiful things in the world this year.

Here are my best ideas so far,

1) Create a piece of art—a collection of drawings? a kinetic sculpture?

2) Organize a live performance in my community

3) Make my workplace more beautiful through an artistic project

Other suggestions are welcome! SAAFIR
