For the student who has progressed beyond learing the basics is a series of monthly projects. Allowing you to explore your creativity but to a deadline. If you are not part of a class then things can just glide along and another year has passed without completing that really juicy project you always wanted to do. If you have suggestions for projects then I am more than happy to include them in the programme. Techniques will be included with the brief. The project brief will be given at the beginning of the month, then students are encouraged to use Facebook and email for progress and feedback from the rest of the group. Completion by the end of the month if possible. There will be a rolling exhibition on the website of students work.
