Portfolio Development II is a course meant for students in the later stages of their portfolio process, with 5 or more completed pieces ready to be included in their portfolios. As opposed to Portfolio Development I which focuses on portfolio staples, this class functions more like an open studio, where accomplished instructor Margaret Minardi helps students in more specialized projects for their portfolios. This can be pieces that certain colleges require for applications, more conceptual pieces that students wish to tackle, and projects from school that require more time and individualized critique and discussion. This class will facilitate plenty of constructive critique and more in depth discussions about college application processes, like how to write an artist statement, piece descriptions, artist CVs, and more.
This class has a pre-requisite of either graduating from Portfolio Development I or proof of 5 or more portfolio ready pieces.
