Curriculum Vitae

With the new year just around the corner and my Grad app about 80% complete it has been a little bit amazing putting together my CV.  I have never done one before and looking around the internet there doesn't seem to be any one standard format.  I've gone through at least three different attempts and finally I think I nailed it with something I am happy with.  Even more so it was hard to look back and see everything I had done and try to fill the gaps and dates.  Once it was all accomplished it was a relief and a bit astonishing.  I get through life mostly day by day, one goal at a time.  They used to be big goals like graduating High School in time, getting into my dream Art School, getting through art school in 4 years.  Now they are a lot shorter such as entering this contest or that one, getting certain pieces photographed, updating my etsy store.  Doing this grad application has really pushed me to get a lot of professional things which I needed to do anyways done in a very short amount of time.  It has been a good thing.

 

This is the most recent piece that I finished and probably the last for the portfolio before I submit it.  you might remember it from THIS post when I started it. I just thought I would add this in here before it get's more wordy.

Now back to that CV.......  Overall looking at it, I haven't been as inactive as I thought, there were a good number of years between college and now that I wasn't doing anything but once I got my head back on straight I was back into it.  And now I present to you basically my life as an artist up till now.
