i had great plans

i was thinking i would redesign my whole blog and start blogging again. but then i went to the studio. and then i went to target. and then it was late. again. so i'm just going to start writing again. we'll have to see if i can stick to it.

i feel like i've been flailing around a bit since i last checked in here. i had a crazy year last year with a ton of retail shows and i am scaling that back quite a bit this year. i am trying to focus on making what i want to make. oddly enough, the metal market has changed my perpective quite a bit. i was so worried about making sales last year, that i made a lot of less expensive work. which was so fun and rewarding, but i just can't do that this year. silver is the highest by far that i have ever seen. and i have so little time to work in the studio now. i just really want to focus on what i want to make. which seems to be more elaborate one of a kind pieces. i have been so excited to make new work. not necesarily "alisa miller" work.

all of this is a round about way of saying changes are happening and i'm really excited to see what this year will bring. not that i won't be doing production work, it just won't take up the majority of my time. and everything is changing. and change is really good. thanks for sticking with me while i explore.

also.... i'm this month's featured artist at Facere!!! take a looksy! this is kind of where i'm going today. who knows tomorrow.
