New Year's Resolution



Hecho/visto was born out of the prevalent crisis that is unemployment. Yet incidentally (gracias a Dios), shortly after I began this blog, I got hired at a splendid production company. I am undoubtedly grateful for having a job now, especially since I recognize the luxury of getting compensated for work you enjoy. However, I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss late nights of gluing mini-collages together, working on my own writing or drawing in my pattern book, things I haven't had made the time to practice.

Looking back at the last month, the thing that was mostly hecho on here was a lot of food! Not that I, or my stomach, regret having visto'd it, but recent photos revealed a shifting balance in my free time. These discoveries are a lot easier when your life flashes before you in blog form :) And so for 2010, I will try harder to rev up my artistic output, even if in small doses. I am hoping that declaring this resolution to a blog post, and having it look me straight in the face in point 11 Courier font, I am more likely to stick to it!


HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!

About Me

My Photo
I'm an LA transplant now living in Manhattan. I used to take too many camera phone photos despite never having purchased an additional memory card. That was the main form of photo evidence for my "haciendo" and "viendo" until Kristen, an LA based friend I share the having of a knife tattoo behind my ear with, gave me her old Fujifilm camera, which has since DIED. Kristen is now removing her knife tattoo from behind her ear, while mine is still in tact, for better or for worse. The camera died on my first day in Lisbon. The last image it captured was a collection of traditional blue & white ceramic wares displayed in a storefront window. Whatever I was trying to photograph afterwards wasn't worth it. I write and produce film projects, have a dangerous predilection for vintage Robinson Golluber scarves and this blog serves as a window to everything else I do when I'm not satisfying those first two passions. I'm trying to blog more and tweet less @annabelleqv. What about you?
