Thank you! Congratulations to you too!
Yeah I was accepted for painting last year and had to defer for one year because of covid. I agree that isolation can bring focus towards making art/studying/improving skills (or whatever you need from the school side to be an art worker) , which was my undergrad experience a few years ago. I am battling between some other reasons that I guess are irrelevant to how the school is ?
You seem to know exactly what you need and why, thats very nice. Congrats again.
