improvements + aspirations session task (?)

I sometimes struggle with making these lists. One of my points for things I want to get better at should really have been "making points for PPP lists". It's reminded me to be more introspective of myself.

In regards to places I'd like to go, none really have anything to do with illustration but are more of, as a whole, aspirations in my life, which I suppose would be influenced by my career! In regards to people I'd like to meet- well- I find it strange to aspire to want to meet people. I suppose it is nice to converse with artistic heroes, but it's something I struggle with at conventions for sure.

THINGS I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT:

  • how to get paid as an illustrator
  • how I can use social media to my advantage as an illustrator
  • how do I get work as an illustrator
  • how self initiated work can become part of my practice
  • how can I make my work - really good - 
  • fun facts for interesting conversation!
  • some more cooking skills
  • stuff about science
  • maybe a language
PLACES I WANT TO GO / PEOPLE I'D LIKE TO MEET:
  • someone who will give me a good job
  • the mountains of norway
  • tokyo
  • new york (it's a popular choice)
  • that one island filled with deer in Japan
  • canada - where, who knows
THINGS I WANT TO GET BETTER AT:
  • creating interesting concepts
  • quickly generating ideas
  • using language in image making / copy
  • self-discipline in drawing
  • recognising my strengths and weaknesses
  • creating compositions
  • making illustrations that are enjoyed by others/ suit there audience
  • food making
  • self-confidence!
