16 Sep Studying the course of your dreams – articulation agreements
Picture this, you are dead set on going to one particular college/university and you know exactly which course you want to do. It is really competitive and there are only a small number of places each year. 'How do I get into art college?' is something we are asked all the time. What is the best strategy to following your dreams and getting accepted onto this course? Read on to find out about articulation agreements.

19 Apr Portfolio development tips
Here at Portfolio Oomph we are totally committed to helping you with your portfolio and all our products are shown below. We also show how our products work together to making applying to art college as straightforward and painless as possible! We've spent a lot of time researching what help there is currently out there online for potential art students like yourselves. We've done searches for 'portfolio development tips', 'art college portfolio', 'interview advice for art college', and many, many other scenarios. I think the answer is clear; not much. That is why we have developed Portfolio Oomph.01 Mar Random International – Rain Room
I am so pleased to have seen this installation art piece earlier this week - Random International - Rain Room at the Barbican Centre in London. The video footage from the installation art in the interview at the bottom of this post is just stunning and I was a little disappointed to have missed the last dance performance of the exhibition that day before I was due to go down. I've been enjoying contemporary dance for years now and haven't really been to see any since our daughter was born nearly 5 years ago, so this was a shame.

Oh yes, it is - Oh no it isn't! Your art college portfolio is waiting for your attention...... He, he, just a little bit of fun. You're right, it is time to wind down, relax, and enjoy time with your family, etc. But if you can do just a few of the things on this checklist before you head back to school or college in January you will be getting one step ahead of the game with your art college portfolio. You will also give yourself some breathing space when your application to art college really kicks off at interview time.05 Oct Get Creative Sketchbook ideas
We discovered 2 videos from the BBC this week on creative sketchbook ideas whilst writing our eCourse on Drawing skills; exploration. As you will probably have discovered by now that sketchbooks are a hugely important part of your art college application and portfolio. Your sketchbooks should show your thought processes, how you tick, and offer an insight into your mind for the viewer! Sounds a bit weird. But really your sketchbooks are so important that you must have I would say at least 2 full ones to take with you to interview.
