As I have not done much to my DYCP project on the role of Subject in my work for a little while, this is what I am planning to do.
Contact at least four artists to talk to them about the role or use of a subject in their work.

(more…)Lascaux 977
I’m starting with a blank dark grey Lascaux 977 on Bockingford paper, I haven’t done anything you can see yet. I will be looking into the use of Subject in my practice.
Web, Media and Scope
Today I have been working on the outline for keeping the digital diary and making a link table for linking from Instagram.
I need to think about the Scope and set down what I will be doing.
The proposal
To explore the role of Subject in my painting and printmaking. A question that I have been thinking about in relation to my work for a while. To spend a period of time researching and investigating this. Some of which will be spent on theoretical research and some of it will be through practical exercises. The aim is to see if subject is a necessity in my work, in some form or if it could or should be removed.
(more…)Research
I have sorted access to the Sheffield Hallam University Library Catalogue. While it is possible to access it with an associate membership which you can apply for I am still able to use my old login code from when I worked as an Associate.
I have been looking at books available to down load as ebooks to start with. Unfortunately items in the 709.2 range are not online so I might need to look at borrowing some real books.
