OUR MISSION

Portfolio Prep & Private Lessons

image885

Student Portfolio Prep & Private

         

This gallery showcases serious  young artists (6th graders-HS) who have been with our Studio's private &  group instructions for past 2-4 years, with Mrs. Ma.  Our young talents with  strong work ethics and self motivation are ready to prepare a compelling  portfolio. Many begin their preparation 1-2 years before audition, in addition  to after 2 years of basic medium/technique training. These art works  demonstrate young artists' dedication and hard work to create original  concepts while using exceptional understanding in techniques. Portfolios are  thoughtfully developed in observations & imagination categories to show  originality & creativity, in both found objects in mixed mediums and in fine  arts mediums. Art theory and  creative discussions further prepare our art learners to articulate  confidently in their visual essays and in auditions & on-site  practical exams. Our young artists are mentored, prepared and  focused, as they launch their creative minds! Portfolio sizes up  to 14x28.
