Thesis I Project Proposal
For my Thesis I project I would like to explore Mason County, Texas. I have photographed the area in West Texas before, but feel I haven't fully captured it. There is most definitely something that I connect with here. I plan on seeking out new subjects and expressing a feeling this small place exudes. I will capture the way in which people in more rural environments reach out to the land that we all walk on for aid in everyday life. In addition I would like to also seek out a rawer Mason.
