Question:
Seious Dilema in Art GCSE opinions please!! :,-(?
I'm doning my final 40% of the exam project at the moment and am having big problems. We have 6 weeks to fill a sketch book with ideas media experiments, studies of other artists etc before having 10 hours to complete a final piece or 'conclusion' to the 6week work.
We had a choice of 12 startin points. I liked da look of memories' and 'wings and feathers' and chose 'memories' because after my other projects being on animals my teacher said i shoud do somethin abstract.
Anyway weve had 4weeks so far. I'd kept on getting stuck 4ideas and haven't done that much and the last week my grandfather passed away. Without knowin this one lesson my teacher was talkin to me about what i could do with my project: make a movin film about death, lost memories etc. (my teacher likes the death, depression side of art) at which i burst into tears and left the room. I can't do 'memories' anymore. Its too painful. Shall i start again and do 'wings n feathers' instead? I hav da easter hols at least

Even though it may be painful, i would advise carrying on with the memories project.
By starting again now, u would not be able to reach your full potential as u've lost so much time.
It may be difficult for u, but being so emotional may in fact benifit your art project. Your emotions will be portrayed into your art and so make your work better. Your a may also help you to get over the greiving process, is the best subject to show and explore your inner emotions.
Buy hey, thats just my opinion and its up to u. I wish u luck with whatever u decide to do. x x
