These meetings are always productive and fast! Dr. McMurdo saw progress in my new images, that have resulted in my weeks of experimenting, revising and rethinking.
She recommended a few other artists to research and also a recent Falmouth conference to watch to help further my work. We talked about working figuratively and how black and white is a huge jump for me as my previous work is literally typically bursting with color.
She encouraged that I continue producing work which I was already planning as I don't feel the collection is yet complete (are collections ever 'complete'?) and that I start experimenting printing on different paper and with different scale framing etc. And also start looking toward a paragraph explaining my work and also the start of my critical review of practice.
I have to say I am a bit relieved as I have been enthusiastic about how this project is progressing. It has been a big change and I feel stretched in my skills but I think the results are fruitful.
