lot about being an artist and what you have to do to exhibition and/or work as an independent artist. It has helped me reflect on my work and myself and as artist, which is a critical part of any career in art, and of VAM Academy itself.

It has been seven months since I made my S.M.A.R.T. goals blog post. My academic goal was to improve how I present my art online. My time frame was six months, and as that time has passed, I would say I achieved my goal. Although I came up short on some specifics (having roughly 50 gallery posts, working for half an hour on the site each week), I have most certainly made an online image as an artist that I'm proud of.
Since posting my original goal, I have added a slideshow to my gallery with more of my VAM work, I have made social media to link to my Redbubble and my website, and I have—especially recently—made more blog posts, even aside from assignments. This website now feels like it properly represents me and my goals as an artist. It's something I feel proud to show my peers, which is avery important part of anything I make in VAM Academy. I can't wait to continue improving this website more, this year and into next year. I will continue to add to my gallery and blog with work I can take pride in! I'm back already with a positive update! As I've been on spring break for the past ten days, I've been doing some painting. I started with a commission, and I was so happy with the finished product, I made an identical painting for myself. Last night I even made another painting for myself, and put both on my wall today. I have done many acrylic paintings before and have been told countless times that I should put them on Redbubble, but never felt confident enough to do so. However, with these paintings, that changed. I took some time today to make two of the paintings into designs and uploaded them to my Redbubble portfolio. I feel very proud of the two designs in the series so far, and hope to add more, or even separate acrylic designs. Let's see where this goes!
