The Final Display.

This is the final outcome. I’m happy with how it have turned out and can see a lot of meaning behind the work. the order may change due to last minute checks and cleaning but that the final display that I will show. I decided that its best to have Corbyn in the middle because it is the most powerful one with the colour of his background the  meaning behind the work made around him. I didn’t place them in a podium design but I have placed them the side that a podium is order( 3rd is on the left, 2nd is on the right and in the middle in the 1st place. I used that because I like the idea of them podium but not the look. so the simplicity will help it just focus on the expression on the facial and hopefully create some humour with the viewer.

Orders of the photos

the order of the photo will have no impact to the work. so I’m not going to look into that as I feel like that work doesn’t need to be ordered. they are formal enough with the layout of the work. The order will be random and will have not thought put into it

The order in which the work will be displayed.

For the layout of the work I wanted to have it 2X15 across the wall. That would of made it perfect with all 30 paintings used. The wall wasn’t long enough for that the I had to use my back up which was the 3×9. that made 27 portraits used. which in the end was the better idea from the beginning because a few of the portraits were not as powerful as others and I could cancels out the weaker links. the other idea I need to decide was to have the podium idea I had, were there was a 1st, 2nd and 3rd like a podium to show who was leading in my opinion, but that was to much going on and decided against that idea and stuck with the simplicity of the 3×9 (top left)

First Year helper Meet

The meeting I had with my first year was to explain what I needed from him and the dates I needed him. so I explain I needed him for the last few days leading up to the deadline. this was because I need him to help me hang the work and clean the work. Then for the last day to help me tidy the space and make sure that I have everything prepared for the assessment and exhibition. He was fine with all the things I need from him

Instagram Update

This is the update of my account. there are some new images no it and some more followers. This account isn’t at the level I wanted but when I create some other art the my current practice it will help me following. this will help me get more followers and business.

1st day of helping from my helper

So for the first day of help we began with cleaning the frames for the portraits. we talked about the artwork and what the plan was for the day. After cleaning all of them we proceed to figuring the best option for hanging the work. Came to a final decision and started with the very first painting and went from there. He help me hang, screw and check the work for it to be level and equally space. after he help me do this I let him go and I finished the last few.

Frame or No

The question is do I have the glass in the frame or not? I think they both good and bad parts about having the glass or not. If I have the glass, there will be a glare of it when the sun shines on it. but it looks more professional and hide some of the blemishes. on the other had having no glass will have no glare but doesn’t look as formal. I think I want it to be more formal than being able to see the texture oh the paint.

 

Studio Space

So for after uni I’ve been looking at studio space in Cornwall to carry on making work and develop my independence as an artist.  the reason why I’m looking at studio spaces is because I don’t have anywhere else to make art, so if I have a place that I rent it will motivate me to get up and go to may space and make art. I’ve look at old bakery studios in Cornwall. they have shared and private space to rent. I’ve sent an email asking for available space and more info.

Jobs on indeed

along side signing up for internships I have also signed up for some jobs on indeed. This is because the idea of work as a technician seem like a great job for me. I like to help others with there work. If I can help an upcoming artist or even artist in gallery create and help display their work seem like a great why to keep myself involve in the art community.

 

Signing Up for internship with indeed

To help me with getting experience for a job I have applied for some internships to give me some experience in the art community. These will help me when it comes to find a long term job.  along signing up for these internship with indeed ill also apply for a few jobs as well.
