88 art pieces that I have made. 2 art pieces done by separate individuals. Combine that with several playlists and new music recommendations and I'd say you had a pretty successful experiment. Though the overall goal of an online global art and music sharing community was never successfully reached due to poor exposure (my fault entirely) and lack of any (minus two) outside art submissions, I still feel very proud of this little achievement, even if it did just evolve into my own personal art show.
On this exact day last year, I began working on my very first piece for this site, made while listening to Everything But The Girl's underrated slow-burner "Amplified Heart". About two weeks later, this site was up and running. However, some things must come to an end, and I can comfortably say that there will be no more uploads to this blog.
I thank John Grant, Tanya Tagaq, the many members of The Pablo Collective, Jack Riordan, and the members of Shataan for giving me some kind words and recognition, and to whatever audience I may or may not have had with this little project.
Thank you and goodbye.
