Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The project's goal is to document artwork in a professional manner that will allow me to best represent my work to contact persons, both online and in a printed portfolio. Evaluation will be complete once portfolio is documented and presentable to gallery and other art venue space contact persons for review of my work and response.

Measurable Outcome(s)

A set up with dedicated camera equipment for documentation of work, which will be reflected in the quality of the images and impact the quality of applications and portfolios produced, furthering the promotion of my artwork now and into the future. It allows me to continue confidently with my large format studio work, knowing that these paintings will be documented in a professional manner.
