Since
my last post I have been fortunate enough to visit galleries in England,
Sweden, Denmark and Italy. In particular, I would recommend Denmark’s National
Gallery and Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, and the Accademia Gallery in Venice, Italy.
In
terms of making artwork, I have mainly focused on producing watercolour
paintings, such as the one shown below of my dad. In addition, I completed my
9000 word/ 58 page dissertation for my degree last month, which discusses
whether art documentation can simultaneously
be considered a form of art through artist self-publishing.
My degree show is in June this year, so I have been
busy producing artwork and doing a considerable amount of research, mainly into
Post-Conceptualism, Hyperrealism and Photorealism, the Renaissance
artists, artists that have won major art competitions, and any other areas of
art that interest and inspire me. At the moment, my plan for the degree show is
to produce and display a variety of drawings, paintings, prints, sculpture,
etc. I aim to provide regular updates on my work for the degree show as it
progresses, and I will also give other areas of my blog an update.
Finally, I am keeping an eye out for further art
competitions to enter.
