Well!!! After dreaming of getting into this school for about 6 years, I am finally starting classes at The Art Institute of Portland on July 16th, 2009 I'm so excited to be going to this school. The staff is absolutely amazing! The admissions staff member who helped me through the process is an absolute angel. I could almost adopt her as another mom, lol. She really is a wonderful and very helpful lady. Any local artists who want to go to school for art is highly advised to go to AIPD, I really think you would like it. Anyway, that's an update for now. As I go through school, I will likely be posting some of my progress as well as things that have nothing to do with school. To be direct, there are new works of art coming soon^_^ I hope everyone is doing well.
