To Illustrate or Not To Illustrate

I’m getting quite stuck thinking about how I’m going to start doing work and stop completely focusing on research.

I love illustration and that’s what I want to focus on in my work however I’m not sure how to incorporate it or how to make my outcome more than just a few illustrations. It needs to have depth and variety which at this point I’m just not sure how to do that.

I’m hoping to do some photography but I haven’t decided how much of a serious photoshoot I’m going to do or if I just take some photos to use in some mix media illustrations.

I’m not so much thinking of my final outcome I’m more so thinking of my experimentation and linking it in with my research.

I’m still looking at Playboy, even though it’s at the start of my sketchbook it is a constant reference I’m using. With it being so heavily photography based that’s what’s making me consider doing a photoshoot but I’m not sure how good my skills are to produce something that wouldn’t look horrendous.

I’m gonna try just experimenting with some illustration work and see where it takes me!
