This class guides students through portfolio preparation, including taking inventory, selecting works, brainstorming new pieces, matting, and photographing artwork for presentation. Students will learn what to include and avoid while organizing their portfolios. Ideal for those preparing for college applications, gallery submissions, or personal growth, this course helps artists create a polished, cohesive portfolio.
To support organization, each student will receive a portfolio envelope for safely storing their works throughout the process.
SUPPLIES: Please bring 5-10 pieces of your original artworks, a camera (or cell phone) and don't forget to pack a lunch!
