Hi everyone, I hope you had a wonderful holiday season.\u00a0 Don’t know about you but it was ridiculously hectic on this end and now I will not be available consistently from January 9 to the 19th<\/span>. \u00a0So I wanted to get a final push to you for getting your images into the Portfolio Gallery for the preliminary critique on January 27th<\/span>\u00a0during the Forum part of the evening.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, I want to check in and see how you are doing with your preliminary choices for this year\u2019s portfolio.\u00a0 I see that not everyone has gotten a folder in the portfolio gallery as of yet.\u00a0 Please do that ASAP.\u00a0 I am asking for a cutoff date of January 20<\/span> for uploading the images you have compiled to date. \u00a0That way I’ll have time to put together the presentation for that evening.\u00a0 Remember, this is not your final portfolio, you still have until May to add, subtract and otherwise revamp your choices.<\/p>\n

For the 27th our distinguished panel, Joe Miller, Scott Musson and Mike Whalen\u00a0will offer their suggestions and feedback on where you are to date. And frankly, you won\u2019t have the chance to get this kind of professional feedback often, so don\u2019t miss this opportunity!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to make their comments meaningful, please upload your artist statement as the first image.\u00a0 If you don’t know how to do that you can email the artist statement to me and I will put it with your images. Send to me at ginger.petricka@gmail.com<\/span>.<\/p>\n

One thing I encourage you to do is look at the images other people have uploaded and open a dialogue with comments, suggestions and encouragement.<\/p>\n

Feedback is essential to growth as all of us develop our art, and with a combination of each other\u2019s feedback, and the two reviews we have during the project we can all benefit from this project.<\/p>\n

One of the things I personally love about portfolio is the freedom to present a subject that is of interest to me, without the burden of second guessing a judge and being in a competitive situation with my peers.\u00a0 I hope you can also see the benefit of working on your portfolio.<\/p>\n

Look for me and for Caesar at the meetings with any questions, or email me at ginger.petricka@gmail.com<\/span>.\u00a0 The instructions for getting a folder in theportfolio gallery are below.\u00a0 Remember, you need to sign up in order to see this year\u2019s gallery and to upload images.\u00a0 Without signing up you can only see previous year\u2019s portfolios when you go the member\u2019s gallery site.\u00a0 Take the opportunity to look at the previous year\u2019s images, and read the artist statements for suggestions if you are stuck.\u00a0 There have been many fabulous images presented in the Portfolio project over the years.\u00a0 See you soon!<\/p>\n
