New Year’s Revolution: Episode 1

posted by mike

Almost everyone has tried it. A new year, a new goal, a new opportunity to improve or excel at something.

This documentary series follows a few La Grande residents in their quest to fulfill a resolution. We’ll be checking in each month to see the progress and hear about their experiences.

Welcome to Episode 1. Meet Drew and May.

(p.s. contact us if you’re interested in being in future episodes.)

I doodle a lot–mostly logo designs, comix a la R. Crumb and G. Shelton and calligraphy/penmanship exercises (I believe penmanship is a dying “art”), but the line “the whole idea behind [this] New Year’s Resolution is to embark on a small mission of self-education” is certainly the quote o’the day…
