Here are some tangible art goals examples to feel inspired when it comes to making your own art goals. You can change and adjust your art goals through out the year. You don’t need to wait for January 1st to make your art goals happen! Check out my art goals examples below!
My Art Goals Examples
Post consistently to social media (5x a week to instagram, 3-4x to facebook, every day to Pinterest, twice a month to my email list, blog post 3-4x a month, YouTube 2x a month), TikTok weekly
Social media takes time. I recently started a tiktok - Jackie Partridge Art. I would like to try paid ads this year
Apply to art calls twice a month - I want to have more exhibitions this year!
I have been getting more exhibitions and artist grants since I have been consistently applying to art application calls.
Spend time in nature for inspiration- I find this really helps with my art practice.
Once a month Gordie and I made it a habit of hiking, campinging or walking outside. I’ve taken lots of photos that I have shared on Instagram
Make consistent art sales- I would love my art to be my main source of income. I would like to match my current teaching income before the end of 2022. These are my current streams of revenue:
Art grants/awards and artist fees
Art workshops and coaching
Selling art teaching resources on Teachers Pay Teachers
Selling my original art
Selling my cyanotype prints on Society6
Set boundaries for teaching for more work life balance- no work on Friday nights and Saturdays, no emails past 5pm, no marking on the weekend. No working camps.
This past summer I worked the month of July at a day camp at my school. I was very intentional not to start working on school stuff until the end of August so that I could have a break from school. Make art during school breaks- I plan on not working at camps this year so that I have more time to focus on my art and business.
Make art each month- I want to get back to making art each month. It is something that I put off like exercising. I want to be able to prioritize both.
2022 Goals
Exercise 2x a week
Match my teaching salary in my art income
Purchase a Home
Have 5 exhibitions or publications
Grow my mailing list by 500 people
Grow my YouTube to 500 subscribers
Have 200 products in my TPT store
