Research 1/5

Confession time. Due to a "well timed" existential crisis, enforced lockdown and crap self motivational skills I have completely disconnected from my project. This week has been spent attempting to get into a new sleep schedule, routine with online classes and give myself a mental kick up the ass so to speak. I have 3 weeks to get my research done but I think with a lot of  time invested that I can still pull it off.

Today I spent researching frames for my final piece, although due to the lockdown I am pretty sure I will have to submit the images digitally due to lack of printing access.

Ideally I need the frames to have a flat edge so that when they are hinged together, it sits nicely when folded or open.

The Warehouse - $7.00 for two Living & Co Certificate Frames. (10-14day delivery, black or white)

Kmart - $2.00 per Norway Certificate Frame. (10 business day delivery, only comes in black)

Harvey Norman - $6.99 per frame. (No delivery estimate, black only)

Briscoes - $5.99 per Brooklyn Cambridge frame. (7d delivery time, only in black. Has bevelling on front so not sure if it would work)

Spotlight - $9.00 per Frame Depot twin pack. (no delivery estimate, only extended wait time. black or white)

Alternatively use foamcore? $7-$10 at Spotlight for 5 A4 sheets. (not as sturdy though, needs to be self-adhesive)

Tonights task is find some of my old camping photos of the canterbury plains/tasman valley and nail down the final base photo. I am aiming to have the image ready for colouring by next friday, leaving me two weeks to play with colours.
