Back in to the swing of University life again today, after taking a pre-booked week out with my wife for her to have a really well deserved holiday. (I also used the sojourn to take some study photos that I can add to my Project 1 Identities portfolio too).
The team that I am attached to have started some really creative work to include in our assignment for a text and image publication. It's been agreed that there will be around 30 pages consisting of 5 drawings and one page of text from each of the five team members. We still have some production to do and the deadline is moving ever nearer. I'm a bit concerned that there will be a really heavy day on Friday this week to get two assignments completed and finished off. However I'm really grateful for some skilled footwork by team member Daisy, during our evaluation of work so far by our course tutor, in her deft negotiation to get an extension over the weekend, ready for a proposed mini-exhibition on Monday. (Nice one Daisy)!
So, whilst I think my illustrations relating to dreams are a useful addition to the publication, I'm also blown away by the creativity of some of the other work the team has done. I'm keen to try some new but simple and elegant methods that they have come up with, not of course to plagiarise anything, but to add and adapt, which I am learning is a kind of post-modern mantra...
This blog is based on the theoretical study and studio practice of a three year, UK based, Bachelor of Arts Honours Degree in Contemporary Fine Art and Illustration.
