First Application for BFA

The last several weeks have been an absolute blur- I’ve been so grateful that I decided to only take the 6 credits.  Getting ready to apply for the BFA program has been very stressful…

Currently my office looks like this:

Yes- it is that crammed full of paintings, sketchbooks and other odds and ends- my chair is in the middle of that ocean as a loan island I can swivel around on. 

I had a really hard time narrowing it down to 20 pieces- at the same time I had a hard time finding 20 pieces that I felt could really be considered ‘portfolio quality’.  Below are my selections.

It being the final hour I now have a few that I would like to swap out- but I am also completely out of time.  SO the drawings and paintings above are what I am turning in.

We’ll see how I do- I should know in a few weeks if I make it or not.  I honestly don’t anticipating getting in this time.  There are so many applying and most of them are absolutely AMAZING artists, and I know that the number of applicants getting into the BFA program will be less than the amount applying. 

In anycase- I’ll have an application in- worst case I don’t make it this time and I have the summer to work on paintings and drawings and I can try again in the fall! 😀
