The goal is to find my own words to explain a tiny piece of how the world around me works
We make work that mirrors our own deeply held ideas about the world. What are my deeply held ideas? How do I see or experience the world? What do I want to say?
Making art is about discovering something new. 
1. Create a collection of the things that you like, in the style of art that you want to make.
2. Figure out what connects it all together.
- what is the through-line between all the pieces?
- if you were a curator that pulled these things together, what would you title the exhibit?
3. Take these characteristics and make them goals. Design a syllabus of actionable steps to learn how to make work in that vein.
