so i was told a while back about this school called the Chicago Portfolio School, a graphic design and advertisement school. however in the past i've been so gung-ho for doing more of the contemporary art/ conceptual painting/ museum curatorial stuff, but lately i've been having doubts about those plans. i really really really want to get my MFA someday, but i'm not ready yet, and i need money. i need a job. therefore, perhaps being trained for a dependable job like a designer or art director is a smart way to go. plus i have no knowledge of the computer programs, or any graphic design experience, and i have to get that somewhere.
so i heard about the school from a friend who heard about it from a friend who heard about it from other graphic design professors, and they all had good things to say. and this school helps try to get you a job once the year is over! so a year from now i could potentially be looking at having a good full-time job i would enjoy.
it's not fine art, but it's creative. i'd stretch my brain in a different direction than i have before, and the modern world is going technologic, so it would be good to be a master of both the classic art of painting, as well as the world of photoshop!
so that's the plan. plus i can still get my MFA, just after i have some cash and experience under my belt.
wish me luck.
