lpayne23 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Laura I really love your portraits, you've been busy this year. Wish I could pull up my '11 stuff but I'm having a hard time finding a new photographer. I've also applied to SAIC, and to be honest, seeing your work makes me a bit nervous for myself! Best of luck to you, I'd love to know when you here from them. I'm out in Seattle. well i'm sincerely surprised that my work would make you doubt your own, because i think your work is quite fantastic. i couldn't do what you do. it's a natural thing i guess, to compare i mean, but it's easy to doubt your own skills when the thing you love doing comes so effortlessly to you. but you have serious skills, have no doubt. we'll have to keep each other, and everyone else of course, posted on painting at SAIC.

wannaknow Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 WOW, congrats to MICA Mt Royal interviews! I'm so freakin bummed though that I didnt get one!!!!!!! and if they already sent out Rinehart interviews I guess that means MICA is off my list... I really thought Rinehart might ne my place, I love the work and I thought I might really fit in well there, but I guess the feeling wasnt mutual!!!!!!

orangetrousers Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Mt. Royal is more interdisciplinary and is a larger program. They embrace mixed media, video, collage, etc. Hoffberger is specifically for painting and only has 8 slots a year. At Hoffberger you work specifically with the directer, Joan Waltemath who is nothing short of amazing. The two schools represent a shift in the academic approach towards painting in the art world.

orangetrousers Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Maybe they have moved you into that program. I am on glass of wine #2...so I may be feeling a bit imaginative. Congrats on the Mt. Royal interviews. This made me nervous, it's one of my top choices. I checked my slideroom portfolio and found out the program I applied to now says "MFA Applications for Post-Bac Consideration" instead of Mt. Royal. I'm pretty sure I submitted it to Mt. Royal last month (I checked so many times before I submitted), not post-bac...Now I'm worried Mt. Royal didn't even get my portfolio. Super worried now because they've already sent out interview notices. I called and talked to Chris and he said he will look into it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artist1 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I have an interview with SMFA for MFA Painting. Rejected from Yale. No word from Columbia or Syracuse yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeDreamPaint Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Keep the faith sista!...or start drinking, like me. Kidding. At least everyone is getting responses, all of my schools are marked to let people know around March which feels so far away when I read these boards. ugh i think i might be sick. no mt royal for me.

vermillion Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 So one can be a sculptor, painter, photographer and go to Mt. Royal, whereas Hoffberger is strictly painting. That's cool that MICA offers those types of different programs for people whose works don't fit into one category or another, thanks for the info. Mt. Royal is more interdisciplinary and is a larger program. They embrace mixed media, video, collage, etc. Hoffberger is specifically for painting and only has 8 slots a year. At Hoffberger you work specifically with the directer, Joan Waltemath who is nothing short of amazing. The two schools represent a shift in the academic approach towards painting in the art world.

summer5121 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I just checked my slideroom and instead of Rinehart it says Hoffberger and I applied to Rinehart. Do you think the school switched me over bc my portfolio fit better in the other school? Did they say anything on the phone about why? Congrats on the Mt. Royal interviews.
