YES…NO…or MAYBE? Defending my thesis!

I had my MFA dissertation presentation today (called a Final Review at the Academy).  In front of a group of three professors, I had to present my thesis, my artwork and the concept behind it all.  Though I was well prepared, I was still nervous.  I am happy to say I passed with flying colors.  I received some great feedback and direction for my future career as an artist.  I am looking forward to mulling this advice over once I stop celebrating.  Now it’s just one more month of class, six more paintings and I’ll be wearing a cap and gown again at a graduation ceremony.  I can’t believe it has been 29 years since the last time I did that!
