Goals, goals & goals!

Lets set some short term and long term goals!

To improve in digital art, I am going to have some goals. There is along way to go for me improving my art skills, so at least I have to know where I am headed. 

I never actually set my self any goals to reach. I have only made daily sketches at Cgtalk and that`s about it. 

Having goal is important because it makes you plan your acts better.

These goals might change in future but at least there is something I have thought already.

Long Term

• I will make one sketching/painting post everyday in this blog for a year! If im not able for some reason, I have to catch up making many in few day. (in 23th of October this blog has to have 365 posts) 
• In one year I will be at least twice as good as I am now!
• I will improve and read theory in these painting and drawing areas:
• Character drawing/painting
• Vehicle drawing/designing
• Environment painting
• Color Theory
• Perspective

Short Term

• I will finish Jose M. Parramons "Color pencil drawing" book in the end of this year!
• I will make portfolio in next few months
• I will make series painting(No more only sketches!!) and ask people to criticize it, to see my biggest mistakes. So I can crush my mistakes and really IMPROVE!

So lets see how I can keep with my goals.

Also yesterday I made a digital sketch on topic "The Lone Cowboy"... I will use this sketch painting as a reference how much I did improve in one year. After one year, I will do same painting about this same topic and then we can compare, if my year have been any good.
