SWOT analysis

my Strengths

  • self-motivation and time management
  • creating images that focus on composition, found imagery, graphic shapes and handmade textures. 
  • understanding of a range of different technological and print based, image-making processes. 
  • I have ambition; a willingness to learn and improve my practice. 
my Weaknesses
  • confidence in approaching others and presenting my work.
  • getting easily stressed over marks and deadlines, instead of finding enjoyment and fulfilment with in my practice. 
  • a lack of experience in initiating and successfully collaborating with other students and practitioners. 
  • a limited understanding of the creative industry and professional practice. 
my Opportunities
  • studying in a specialist art college that offers opportunity for collaboration with a range of different practices and specialisms. 
  • working everyday in a studio with like-minded students and tutors - opportunity for feedback and to learn from each other. 
  • competition briefs, art fairs ect.
  • the constant opportunity to contact practitioners and companies that have synergy with my practice - ring them, write to them ect. 
  • access to a range of different facilities and specialist workshop tutors - print, ceramics, photography ect. 
  • being able to self-promote my work through social media platforms such as instagram, facebook ect. 
my Threats
  • procrastination and a social life : often I don't take full advantage of the opportunities laid out in front of me because self-doubt or life gets in the way. 
  • competition from existing practitioners, I need to find my USP : what makes my work different?
  • Time is running out, I need to take FULL advantage of my time left as a student on this course because if I don't I may regret it later...
