Reading Week & Half-Term- An Overview -

Exploring Specialist Pathway

MAYA

Intro:

During the reading week I have created a new document to try & structure the “further reading” & Maya practice I’ve undertaken. These entries take from this document in a condensed form.

Artist Profile: Where I have encountered artists in magazines or on the web I have listed their details, with a brief overview of their profile & included images where I felt worthy/relevant. Over the course of the two weeks (Reading & Half Term) I have collected half dozen entries and intent to grow this list the more I encounter. A selection is entered below with the others in the SpecialistPathway_Research.doc
