Happy New Year!

8 AM Day 1

Good morning, my people...I hope you all spent a wonderful evening enjoying the last day of 2010. I managed to stay awake all the way to 11:30 before I went to sleep.

I live an exciting life, folks.

I was supposed to run a 5K this morning, but it's raining cats and dogs, and I'm just not that hard core. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice. We'll have a little Ottwork 5K then.

I've started a new project for 2011, which I'll actually document at my tumblr site - I'll be taking an iPhone photo of each (human) member of my family every morning at (about) eight AM, creating a collage of the four photos, and posting them to the tumblr site every day. I'm hoping to document the minute changes we all go through in a year...it's all about the minutia...

Today...I'm just going to enjoy the rainy day and relax a bit, and paint a couple of rooms...all part of my plan to make our house feel like our home again.

It also helps me avoid unpacking all the boxes still lurking in my studio...

Here's to a great 2011!

  2. 8:00 AM? Why not 'shoot' for something more reasonable, like, say 4:00 AM?

    Happy New Year, everybody! Repeat every minute for as long as you can stand it.

  3. Scary - glad you all didn't move next to me! (just kidding). I love the look, and think it's a great project. You are a handsome family (at 10 am - just guessing). I wonder if each of your family members will be willing to have their photo taken at 8 am on a daily basis, each and every day. Happy New Year!

  6. Happy New Year. May 2011 find you feeling perfectly at home in your house again.

    Love the mug shots! Sounds like an interesting project. But, I'd rather not have a record of the ravages of time on my face. hehe.
