First of all, an early Merry Christmas to everyone! I know I said before about snow being inspiring, and as it nears Christmas, the festive atmosphere does start sparks of inspiration. It's often the music that begins it, especially with all the choral singing going on. And I guess the chilly weather means I'm more likely to cosy up with a pencil and paper indoors....
As the end of the term finishes, I'm finishing off parts of our college disguise project - quite a lot of experimentation and exploration. In my class, we're encouraged to photocopy our work so we can work into it, and experiment freely. So I've been exploring 'disguising' my work with paint dragging, and also writing/text. It's so interesting to see the huge variety of interpretations in class, none of them the same. Speaking of finishing things, I've posted an explanation of my Catch-22 project today, describing my development and thoughts behind my work. I'm thinking of taking a similar approach of character exploration with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, who is fascinating. Shelley's entire concept and characters have been something that've captivated me for a long time. There's so much that her work explores and brings up, and it's something I want to give a go to exploring. My Notebook is full of other ideas, so hopefully the Christmas break will give me more time to develop some of them..... Until the New Year: Merry Christmas!
