Prompted by my self-directed study in the studio, I have realised an opportunity through the accumulation of objects every day.  By studying different aspects of these object collections, I explore particular aspects in different contexts. I organise and contrast these studies to explore emotional resonance.

I will address this approach by investigating objects through extracting the colours and textures. I intend to do this using printing, acrylic, inks and soft pastel. I believe that bright colours in the work are more effective as they convey packaging and represent more emotion. In my work layering has been effective and developing this further could bring an additional dimension. It is also important that these objects are owned by myself because I have a closer connection and would want to explore them further.

It is also important that I work in the studio on a daily basis so I would always be thinking and engaging with the work. This would help me reflect on my practice and I will record in my journal and sketchbook. Also I intend to work on a bigger scale than the sketchbook so I would not be restricting myself. This would allow me to be more expressive with my mark makings as well. Additionally I will try new surfaces such as painting on objects.
