Mid - Module assessment are over for the first block, well with Specialist Skills, Creative Concepts and Life Drawing. Some went a lot better than others. 
I need to include a lot more within my sketchbook work, especially in the Creative Concepts projects. More relevant research, different concepts and my own 2D and 3D models.

New brief on Visual Symbols & Pictograms has been issued for Creative Concepts where I will need to get my finger out and get to grips with the projects quicker. Going to need to take an in-depth look at Semiotics - the study of symbols of all kinds, what they mean, and they relate to the things or ideas to which they refer. 
I had the idea of trying to not write anything in my sketchbook and try and make it understood through symbols and images only. But after thinking it though and trying it briefly, it was far too difficult.

So, plan for next week it to :-

Research more on semiotics and for the words festival, society, holiday, bargain, culture and mineral.

Start progression in my own chosen object for life drawing, scratching into plastic and filling with different colored charcoal or wax.

Finish the swatch diagram for specialist skills and start to a new workshop.

Finish essay on digital designers/artists for specialist skills.

And finally, more research on modernism and post - modernism for contextual studies.
