Program Overview
Green River College fosters an in-depth preparation for the study and creation of art. At Green River, you will undertake a program of study which helps each individual student find a balance between aesthetics and technique in your creative process and expression. Through the development of strong problem-solving skills, you will learn to discuss the theoretical and practical meaning of your work. At Green River, you can develop your ideas, build strong techniques, and create a competitive portfolio.
A portfolio is a crucial part of your application to professional art schools, most university art programs, and galleries. A good portfolio helps someone evaluate your achievements and potential and should include samples of your best work in your specialty.
Your portfolio may include:
- Drawings including drawings from observation only and figure drawing from a live model
