Ideas abound!

Working round the non-half term!  The travelling issue is the diffficulty, as the college buses do have a half term and therefore reliance on lifts and transport availability means I havent been able to attend every day and so have had to re-arrange tutorials listed.  On a plus note, I have been productive and a clear plan is emerging as to my direction, and near future work, which is a relief personally.  The relativity of text and how we relate to others seems to take up a large part of my thinking and therefore my art work is bound to show this.  The realisation of mortality has its effects also.  Analysis of personal thoughts gives me the idea that I take situations in a solemn manner although I know I am not a doleful person as I believe life is too short for that.   I have been experimenting with making my own text-works to hopefully produce a handmade book, with a difference.  My collection of religious books will be used to make this or these!  Tuesday came and Paul`s tutorials.  I have this year seen some large-scale  works at the YSP , namely Jaume Plensa and Aeneas Wilder, which were awesome, and so I can only think that my idea to go with `Implications of Scale` for my essay came from them.  What I dont want to do is appear biased towards large works as the very intricacy of some small art pieces is superb.  Wednesday saw me re-arranging my studio and am now happy with that.  Yesterday (Friday) we had an induction on the vacuum former - which could be useful for future moulding of letters and text for me.

I also became accustomed with some other machinery in 3D.  The wire heads (in studio) are what I am working on   - there will be three hopefully although the large netting is harder to form and may take a little longer to shape. The macquette fashioned with black card was quite interesting enough to bring into studio, of course it would be good to go bigger with this:

Time to concentrate on research and essay so for now, ciao!
