Before this trip I had the thought that I wanted to gain some inspiration, as I was starting to struggle with what I wanted to do in a studio. This is because I felt my creativity was limited within a studio and I wanted to see if I could explore what I had in from of me further. From this trip I managed to gather some inspiration as well as deciding what was for me and what was not. For example, the Photographers gallery held an exhibition which was all to do with food. In my opinion I did not feel inspired or thought it was relevant for this particular model. However, I considered that it might aid me in the future.
Despite this exhibition, I also decided to attend the Taylor westing Exhibition and thought it fitted more within this module and what I was searching for in terms of inspiration in portraiture.
These two portraits inspired me as they focused on the faces of the models it was a close up angle, which maybe I would like to interpret into my work. 
I also admired that they were black and white, majority of the pieces within the exhibition were colour, therefore both of them caught my eye. I have not decided whether I want my portraits to be black and white or if I want them in colour.
