A New Year Update
8 months ago
The past couple years for me have been long, busy but in some ways quick too.
Into the new year there are still many goals to reach for.
Recently moved back home to New York from Oklahoma, though at the moment I don't know how long I'll stay here. I'm guessing a minimum of at least 6-8 months but it all depends on where my next job will take me. Settling in did take a bit longer than planned too, finally got a desk put together and set up. My cat also wasn't so happy about the move, she turned into a hissy butt for a few days but she seems to have mostly calmed down now. Within the next few days I plan to get back to working on commissions. Once caught up I probably will do some more personal art since I want to experiment around with ideas and styles.
Art Goals
A while back I said I wanted to get into painting again, while it is a big goal of mine I had to postpone it so I can improve my artwork a bit more. I do believe I've made good progress over the past year so I do want to try that again. Probably start with some simple stuff first and eventually move onto something more complex if it goes well for me. Overall, my goal is to continue to improve on my artwork.
Career Goals
It's been a while since I mentioned anything about this topic. Over two years ago I moved to Oklahoma for flight school, while I did complete the program I still need to get my instructor certification. Due to delays and such, it wasn't really worth my time siting around in Oklahoma and burning money away while making zero progress so the best option was to move back home and finish it here instead. While I do currently have 4 certifications already (Private, Instrument, Commercial, Multiengine) and 300+ hours logged flying. It's pretty much impossible to find a good entry level job without an instructor certification, so I'm 90% sure once I get this dealt with my first job will likely be as a flight instructor. So hopefully by the middle to end of this year I'll finally be able to start my career officially.
Other than that, that's all I have to say.
Let's hope 2025 will be a great year for all of us!
