Activity: Write a short paragraph about your experience at National Portfolio Day. Include two + images of you at the event.
Student Example: Statement of Experiencing National Portfolio Day: I really enjoyed going to see all of the major and minor art colleges. The representatives of colleges asked good questions and make me think more about art. For example, do I want to do art as a major or a minor and what do I want to specialize in. Some representatives comment or compliment on my art work or some are more critical which is different for me because I'm use to hearing positive comments and not negative comments because I've never had a expert or critic look over my art work before. The most I've heard from representatives was, "in order to improve you need to find a style and continue to change it," this comment was actually what I was looking for because I was always see artist with their artwork and they always has a similar style or relate in someway. Another comment was, "you do really when in solid colors, shapes, and edges," this one helps because they go further into detail by saying how I could use these as a advantage in finding my style.
