LIKE THE CONCEPT FOR THIS PROJECT, THE RESEARCH CONTINUED ON FROM THE PREVIOUS. THE MAJORITY OF MY TIME SPENT IN THIS REGARD WAS TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS SUITABLE FOR ME TO DRAW FROM- THAT FITTED IN WITH CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT WORK THAT I HAD BEEN DOING. I ALSO WORKED MORE ON COLOUR AND COMPOSITION.  THE RESEARCH ELEMENT OF THIS PROJECT WAS FAIRLY CONCISE, REALLY ONLY NEEDING PHOTOGRAPHY WORK.  I MADE A DETERMINED EFFORT NOT TO GO OFF ON A TANGENT AND START EXPLORING COMPLETELY NEW THEMES, AS THIS WOULD HAVE TAKEN MY FOCUS AWAY FROM THE MAIN PROJECT.  I SUPPOSE THAT I MIGHT SAY THAT THIS ASPECT OF THE PROJECT WAS SUCCESSFUL- EVEN IF ONLY BECAUSE IT SERVED A PURPOSE AND DIDN'T NECESSARILY INSPIRE ANYTHING NEW. I DID SPEND A GOOD WHILE LOOKING MORE AT OTHER ARTISTS, SIMPLY FOR INSPIRATION FOR THINGS LIKE MY WEBSITE DESIGN, AS I WAS DETERMINED TO CREATE AN ONLINE PORTFOLIO THAT HAD A BIT OF SUBSTANCE BEHIND IT AND REFLECTED MY WORK WELL AND WHAT I DO.
