Does size matter?

Of course it does.    But my paintings are mostly small.  I don't know if schools even look at that at all, but I'm wondering....

I'm also wondering how much grades matter.  I mean, what is a good GPA for an artist?  

I can't help but think that the Profs just choose people based on "liking" their portfolio and nothing else matters.  I don't know.

I admit my knowledge of the fine arts is limited, but I just want to say you were quite clever with the topic title and for that I applaud you.

Applause accepted.

Your portfolio is crucial. But your numbers will reflect your work ethic and professionalism.

uniformally every school I visited said the same thing: portfolio is the most important part of your app...UT - Austin even has a separate statement requirement for discussing your submitted work.  If the scale of your work has particular meaning, then you should be prepared to discuss that in your written statement and/or interviews.
