AUDITION TASKS  

Auditions last 3 hours and consist of three sections: a review of the portfolio and sketchbook, studio performance, and an interview.

Portfolio and Sketchbook Review
The portfolio must include ten examples of original art work (no more, no less). The sketchbook should be 8” x 11”. Please include a majority of observation art that accurately portrays three-dimensional subject matter observed from life, not from still image sources.

Studio Performance
Two in-person, on-campus audition-day drawings: (A) self-portrait from observation, and (B) creative landscape from imagination. Each participant will be provided with the necessary materials. Applicants will receive 40 minutes to complete each drawing.

Interview
A member of the faculty will interview the applicant to determine the levels of motivation, commitment, and suitability for the program.
