Tutor conversation, Rachel Forster, 8.3.19

  • Be honest and think WHY? – my opinion, and explaining why I think it, is the important bit to get down
  • WordPress blogs – Rachel will send an example from another student whose blog she feels is well done. When I have got my blog up and running, send Rachel the link so she can keep an eye on it.
  • Writing up research should NOT sound like an exhibition catalogue. I should think and write about how the research links to MY work – e.g. I said I enjoyed the Egon Schiele exhibition – so, what exactly is there about it that I like and how will I respond to it – how can I use it in my work?
  • Sketch REGULARLY – show what’s going in in my head
  • Get into the habit of regularly collecting reference images
  • Rachel will send a list of books for research
  • When I submit work for assessment, if I especially want feedback on a specific part of the work, it is OK to say so
  • KEEP REFERRING BACK TO THE ASSESSMENT CRITERIA – measure myself against them
  • ASSIGNMENT 1 TO BE IN BY 31ST MAY
  • Reference to “Contextual” – how do I react to it? Why? What will I do with/about it?
