I have recently completed writing my Masters of Fine Art thesis and will be exhibiting the work produced over the last 2+ years in October. I would like to present an edited version of my thesis as a catalog to accompany the exhibition and to serve as a record of the processes and outcomes of the project. 

The catalog will be 80 pages long, full colour, and include around 40 images of both my drawings and of the drawing process. 

It will also include essays from my written thesis, which will provide people interested in my work with valuable context and insight into the project's development. This is of particular value as my drawing practice has run in parallel with my reading and writing practice over the course of the project. 

The funds will be used to cover the cost of printing the catalog. 

Printing 50 copies has been quoted at $638:

50 copies, 80 pages each, on 140gsm Revive Recycled stock, 300gsm Revive Recycled stock cover, full colour. approx 20 x 25cm 

As the work has already been written all that remains to do is edit and format the book for printing. I also intend to re-photograph many of the works from the exhibition to ensure the best quality images are used in the catalog. I have allowed 8 weeks for the project, which should be more than ample time to finish these tasks. 

The exhibition will open on the 28th of October, I intend to have the catalogs proofed and printed by the beginning of October. My current projected timeline is relaxed and allows for any delays that might occur in the design or printing stages of the catalog production.
