After flip flopping around on the idea of creating a series of historical editorials. I have finally done them. With the time frame of a week to do them in. as a way of setting myself back on the right path.
After talking to Sól about my worries with editorial and her saying I don't have to do political in the moment stuff. I realised that I can focus my practise into an area I wanted. Using Sól to pick the articles for me. It forced me to work to the specifications of another not just myself and what I wanted to do. It was challenging but also allowed me to adapt the way I work to a brief and hone the way i create images.
All 5 Images where done in lino and finished in digital. It took a week to complete and I honestly feel better for it.
I swore off editorial, however I see know that that was a shortsighted vow that I'm no longer sticking to.
