Art on every page....

If you are interested in going to art school there are two things you need to look for:

1. What do the instructors works look like and what are their client lists and industry success credits?
2. What does the student work look like?

If both are strong you can be sure that you will improve whether you spend time with the faculty or your peers and having both means a better opportunity to be with great people and have great success on your own.

Hope to see you in class.

Don't want to be a gamebreaker, but isn't saying this a little bit over-exaggerated and rude.

Anyhow, great work to be viewed indeed.

It is my opinion that those links show the finest body of first semester student work of any college I have seen to date. I am not ashamed to say that at all, as they are a deserving, talented, and incredibly hard working group. I am honored to share all of this stuff and am not afraid to point others to what the TAD students have accomplished already--both under the guidance of this faculty and amongst themselves.

Those studying here and excelling deserve the kudos and nothing less. I am happy to say it again...this is the overall single finest overall body of first year student art of any art school anywhere and their efforts are right there, visible and worth seeing. Your negative spin on my choice of words does nothing to diminish that, or my belief in the truth of what I see every single day. This is a very worthy group and the incoming students are going to do just as well. I do not believe there is a program with first year students having a body of work like this. If there is, feel free to shoot me an email with the links so I can spend hours pouring over it all. I would be absolutely happy to see that.
