Application Submitted to "Show Me the Monet"

I have just finished making my application to Show Me the Monet, and uploded my narrative series of images titled The Mirror as my submission to be considered to exhibit in London. Good luck to me!

Show Me the Monet

Lucky Day TV are making a brand new series of 'Show Me the Monet' for BBC Two. They are looking for both amateur and professional artists from across the nation to apply. They are looking for great art - painting, drawing, photography, prints, sculpture, textile art (as hangings not textile design or fashion) - to put into their prestigious exhibition in London

Work Completed for December 2011 Deadlines

I've handed in both assignments and I'm happy with the work I have completed for them. I enjoyed both the academic and practical side of the assignments, and even feel that my presentation yesterday afternoon went well. This is not something I would normally feel confident about.

This year I am beginning to develop may creativity in more depth and with a more conceptual approach. We are being encouraged to consider our artistic identities, and this is very exciting for me. I felt that I was able to talk about my work with more confidence because I have understood the philosophies and academic texts that I am reading which are relevant to my work. I am also finding that there are aspects of traditional and contemporary art that influence me, and this is something that I will research further in the future.

I am no longer afraid to disclose my innermost thoughts and feeling because I consider this to be an integral part in reaching my potential as an artist.

The following images are my submissions for both FD201and FD202
