Visiting the illustration show at grand parade gave insight to the current level of final year students. There was a very professional appearance about the layout and fine detail involved in presenting an illustration identity to the public. Each artist would display one or two major pieces of work and then have underneath books explaining process and an on-going narrative about their practice.
Considering my own practice some of the work I found was similar. The boundary between fine art and illustration may be small. However there is the undeniable rift behind the thought process and philosophies behind the works. Critical analysis on illustration may be limited to the needs of the client However one painting or piece of sculpture could catalyse an everlasting argument for art historians for centuries to come.
The choice to carry on the fine art pathway is now easily made and I feel the potential for further development is limitless and is a very exciting and fulfilling prospect.
