I will create a new body of work that expands my understanding of metalpoint drawing and yields insights about the landscape of northern Minnesota. The drawing series will engage the public, inviting people to see Minnesota's mining landscape in a new way. I am excited about my current work and believe that continuing to explore the relationship between mining and the landscape in northern Minnesota will lead to a very dynamic series. To judge whether I have achieved my goals, I will look to the success of my solo exhibit, both in terms of the quality of work and of the quality of feedback. I will also consider whether the new series builds upon and evolves from my previous mining artwork. Getting additional exposure through another exhibit and through website traffic would be a positive indicator as well.
