Too old yes, lol- overqualified? Nah. That's probably an excuse also probably depends on the program. And Hopefully I'm more fresh than polished. Cvs not that long and too localized so ?.
I would have liked to apply 2-3 years ago but life things popped up and then Covid. I'd only apply this year. After this year life or 'being an artist' (ideally) will busy me so this is my last chance to hyperspeed & challenge my growth as far as creating. I'll still grow but an environment of feedback and criticism would be instrumental. And fun:) - So if I can have 2 years to create better art before being an 'artist' then I'd absolutely take it.
But! If the program thinks I'm too old and I won't fit in then that's absolutely valid.
Curious if there'll be other 30ish applicants on here~
