last week of deify

It's the last week of deify, and I can't believe how quick it has come round, we need to be finished with our shrines next week. I definitely think that I'll be okay, if I stick to my plan for the week! It's just a matter of drying times, with the paper mache and the paint etc. but I definitely feel on top of it, and I just need to make sure I keep it that way, or I'll get too stressed out!!

As well as our shrines, we need to start our essays. I think I'm going to go with the first question, and focus on Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. I've been trying to research him a little on the internet, howevere there have been no official sites, and some of the sites offer very little insight onto his art, and just seem to go on about his disability, and how he came to be in art, which is interesting to read, but doesn't help me put together an essay about how he fits into the Modern Movement. So I plan to visit the college library in the holidays and take two books out which I think will be helpful, and then maybe try and visit my local library, or even Liverpool library. Not sure whether they'd have any information about a French poster artist of the 1900s, but I'll give it a try!

So lots to do over the holidays, as well as chill out abit!
