10 Things I Want to Learn

Stolen from Austin Kleon‘s Steal Like an Artist Journal. I mean, I had to.

The idea (and first prompt in the above-mentioned book) is simple: Write down 10 things you want to learn. Here’s the list Kleon came up with in the heady, pre-pandemic days of 2017:

Now, I love lists, so this is my bag. But I haven’t given a lot of thought to 10 things, which may not seem like a lot, but really is, so going off the top of my head, I may not have 10 right away. Here goes my initial attempt.

10 Things I Want to Learn (2023)

1. Discipline
2. How to create a song (with vocals) in Garage Band (or other music software)
3. How to Stretch
4. How to consistently draw Gum Gum People
5. Meditation
6. My camera’s ins and outs (Canon EOS M50)
7. Unity (the game engine, not the concept)
8. Blender (3D animation program)
9. ???
10. ???

All right, I have a list to start, and I think it’s a decent beginning, but I will need to ponder a bit and come back to round out the list.
