Interim Critique

I was actually surprisingly nervous for my presentation today, but once I got talking I was fine.
One thing that the tutors said was that I sounded really passionate and excited about my work, which I’m very happy about because this is true and I need it to come across when I’m talking!

Suggestions which were made were:

• Frame idea may be too conventional/safe
  Could try printed mounts, printed with line drawings
  Option for printed fabric mounts
  CREATIVE MOUNTING!
  This will set my work apart from other framed pieces
• Idea of bits coming over and around the frame, rather than being restricted to inside it
• Keep developing the wording, idea of having that on the mount, or as a border?
• Option of selling alternative accessories, such as tea towels, aprons, oven gloves, mugs etc
• For next week, swap over mood boards and timetable in space
• On board in space, organise into collections, maybe just have favourite samples up ready for Dr Miller’s visit (other samples in a sketchbook)
• The tutors really liked my photos from the beach images, and encouraged me to ‘how these off’, for example in a calendar

I’m feeling really positive after this chat, and am looking forward to continuing my experimentation.
