The creative project dealt with an intensive study of a wide variety of color drawing media and surface grounds (papers). The artist carried out a number of sketches to determine the properties of the individual drawing materials, then executed a series of eight finished drawings. The results were analyzed and presented in written documentation. In addition, the artist also researched historical and stylistic relationships between his own and existing works.The main accomplishments of this project were the development and growth of subject matter and the experimentation with materials and technique which occured in the artist's work. Through work in the various media, the artist attained a deeper understanding of the technical application of the materials and further developed and refined his range of images and subject matter.
