I have to say, for a high school student, the variety of work she submitted is really impressive and clearly she is someone that isn't afraid to experiment and learn something new. As someone with a background in fashion, I feel her pieces are stylish and that she has a talent for color and texture. I see potential for her producing bold creative work that I can imagine being applied to fashion--whether it's fashion design, fashion illustration or even fashion textile and print design. Nice work, Annabeth!
Thank you for your thoughtful comment! Very encouraging and thank you for your lovely insights on their portfolio, so nice to see people supporting each other on our channel.
I teach painting at UW-Madison Wisconsin and I think that all art teachers have different ways of judging art but some have more depth and can appreciate a broader range of talents. Clara is a great example of a teacher who has great knowledge of technique and also has a broad appreciation of various types of creativity. Way to go teacher!

These videos are so helpful to me. These students are doing great things. And your observations are really insightful and kindly put. One question though, you say you can tell when someone is using a photo reference and when they are painting from life. I’d love to know how you can tell that? Have you done a video on this topic? I paint only from photos because that’s what’s available to me. I suppose I could paint my face but I don’t like it that much. Lol. I’m retired and don’t expect to pursue a career in art. But I would like to do my best work. I’ve spent the last few years just working on trying to figure out how to get likeness in a portrait so it seemed like photos are a natural choice for that. But I’d love to hear you describe what you see as the obvious signs of painting from a photo.
Hi! We did a video last week on photorealism that if I remember correctly does talk a little about how you can spot a drawing done from a photo: ua-cam.com/video/zVAkdgRe8QE/v-deo.html This article on our main site also explains it as well, I think it's towards the bottom of the page: artprof.org/art-school-portfolio-drawing-from-life-photos/ Good luck! -Prof Lieu
I've been binge watching your videos for a while now as I myself am building my porftolio for a 2D animation specialization course (I do realise the proposal is different and I do have that in mind) and I have a question: How much importance should I give to the description area of the slides? Because I am giving thorough descriptions of my thinking process for each piece...
