Task 1 – Organise my 4 chosen stencil prints ready for Pretty’s Exhibition *(Mandatory)*
Yes… this is my task of the week to try and get all 4 of my chosen prints ready for the upcoming pretty’s exhibition for 14th December. I will have to probably put the sixth and seventh layers on hold for my Chairman Mao print in order to complete this deadline task in good time. With any luck after printing them out onto acetate I hope they will successfully show out nicely on the silk screen and then should be printed perfectly onto paper. Hopefully will work out for me well and hope I can be selected for the latest exhibition…
Task 2 – Re-shape bricks and organise more materials for Chinese and English illness sculpture
Yes… this task is partially mandatory too because it has been a week since I have last touched it but in that time I have managed to think of new ideas for this sculpture. New ways include reshaping the bricks so that I can make them more symmetrical looking and also reshaping the larger foundation bricks for a more even finish to the lower part of my sculpture. With any luck I can be successful in cutting them using the university’s machine and be able to finish my task in good time. If it don’t work then I will have to think of better ways to present this sculpture but I am confident that this will work.
Task 3 – Fourth and fifth layer to be completed of Chairman Mao print
Reflecting back at my disaster on last Fridays post, I have now had to wait to finish doing my fourth and fifth layers of my Mao image. Of course there has been so many delays and errors which has left me thinking will there be anymore? I certainly hope not as I would really want to get this image finished preferably before Christmas time at the very latest! I do not want to have to go through any other delay again with this image as I have already worked hard in organising the layers. And this time I should have my fourth layer more prepared which should not be over alignment.
Task 4 – More research for research methods
Yes… this is also partially mandatory to me as I should think about more in terms of research that contextualises my work and should give my work a bigger outlook. I will try to read some more books, take some notes and highlight any relevant information that will aid me in my project proposal and final presentation. With any luck I can find all the information I need to succeed even further as this is one of my weak areas within the artistic line.
Task 5 – Sketchbook work to be updated with more research and ideas etc…
I should be filling in my sketchbook with more ideas and information as I go along but has been a week since I last looked at it as I have had other issues to deal with such as my sculpture and Mao print. In future I will try to write down any ideas, information and sketches as I go along every week. Hopefully I won’t get any other distractions that will prevent me from updating my sketchbook…… Well hopefully I can complete all of these tasks this week so… good luck to myself. :-0
