I didn't get any information when I transferred. I don't see that it's that big of a deal.
it's what all artists talk about. GRAPHIC DESIGN IS NOT THE SAME THING AS ART!! everyone thinks that but it isn't even the same major and there's no to very little crossover in classes you need to take. gallieries is what I said, but I also used the word exhibitions. exhibitions is any way of showing your art. you have an old fashioned idea of what a gallery is. look up Axle or Site Santa Fe. it's not what you'd think.
I love the Louvre. I want to go back! The british museum is great too. where all the roman scultpures and parts from the panthenon are.
some modern art is worth it, but some of it is not art to me. it's a separate category of creative thinking, but it's so far from the traditional definition of art, that I think it needs it's own word.

But I've been doing everything online and I'll have to be in a school, in class physically this time. And I'm not sure how the transfer process goes. I'm worried =.=
I know it's not the same thing. I'm saying, she does websites XD I know I have an old fashioned idea of it, but that's what I think of. I haven't been to any exhibits or galleries in a long time so that's just what it is. :/ But I've also been to Rome, to the Colosseum and been to the ruins behind it. I find those things much more interesting. And the art from back then. The inspirations of that age, the details, realism. Even here, the castles, their murals are all romaticism, so there's no blood in any of the battles. it's nice, but realism is just... something that's hard to capture sometimes. I think it takes more skill. I can agree, modern art is... something else.
So, will you have to change your classes to be more writing focused?>

transfer is really simple and though you can fight with what credits with work and what won't, they will figure all that stuff out themselves. usually all credits will be accepted, but they may not qualify toward your major. usually you can't do anything about it. things will just happen on their own.
I love romanticism. Raft of the Medusa by Gericult. Lady freedom lead the people of france (I think that's what it's called). I love the quality of brush stroke and the vivid colors, the smokiness of the paint. I find myself painting like that.
and you're speaking of realistic styled art, not realism. Realism is a very boring art movement about painting people farming and doing every day, unromantised things. very stiff.
I graduate in two semesters. I won't change anything or else I'll be in school for another year and a half. I can't do anything about it.

Transferring still worries me.
It's interesting, romanticism, but it seems like something is missing. Usually, that's ok. it doesn't need all the excessive details, usually. I haven't painted often enough to know what kind of style I have. People farming and things isn't so terrible. American Gothic, so much is said with the way it was created. Meh, modern art, most of it sucks in comparison.
Oh gosh. Wait... so you'd be in school for a year longer? And if you don't change it now, what are you going to do?

Realism with the hunting troupes. The fox hunting. I mean, it's more like documenting life. I like it. it has it's uses.
Yes yes, it's pretty. I use romanticism/fantasy when drawing anyway. So, I'm used to that. More like, LOTR with the huge castles built into the mountain. That's dramatic for sure.
I like the art from the 40's/50's. The product labels and such, advertising was going through a new age.
The only thing I don't like is photography where people will film in black and white and automatically call it art, even if it's a picture of a sandwich. =.= I like B&W, I don't like when it's abused.

if you want to document life, take a picture! (I know they didn't have cameras then)
it is kinda lord of the rings huh. Gericult was cool like that.
That's modernism. andy worhol? campbells soup cans.
lol. but a sandwich can be art. depends on the sandwich.
I lik cindy sherman's photography because she recreates old film stills and puts herself in the character from them.

Well, yes sort of Andy Worhol. Maybe I mean closer to the 60's then. Not exactly Andy, more abstract. Yes I know a sandwich can be art, but not EVERY sandwich XD I haven't heard of Cindy Sherman. Of course you know so many more names than me since you've been studying art XD You should. Hmmm, film stills are hard to come across or expensive.

more abstract, but like Andy Worhol? I don't know what sort of art you're thinking of.
it's art to eat it!
I don't really know names. I had to look at my notes from class to remember Cindy Sherman. I'd studied her before of course. A lot of these names I can throw out because We just did a crash course in art history in one of my classes (mostly modern and post-modern though).

No, not really like Andy Worhol. His are so realistic. I think it's in the same era though, just not like him at all. It's abstract and colorful advertising. I'll have to look around.
How do you feel about art history though? Did you like that part in the course?

well, if you're talking graphic design and advertising, I don't know. we don't study that.
I like art history 1--ancient art. pre renaissance. I hate learning modern and post modern art though. so boring.

it doesn't, but art hasn't had that since the ren. really. only time art has had some 'theme' is when the church was the main commissioner of art. then there were other things that unified it like academic art only accepted very specific criteria that was very uninclusive. art is all inclusive now.

Well, better for the artists. I just wonder what will be the unifying idea that they will try to categorize the art of this century with, in the future.
I heard back from the school, just general info but I've also gotta talk to the education department now. Gonna see if I can just start online with them instead of with UoP, who doesn't actually have the degree that I want, and then transferring later on.

why would they categorize it under some unifying idea????
I'm glad you're getting some of that stuff figured out.

Because that's how people are. They will try to find one thing that they have in common and then name it for that.
I haven't called the Ed department yet. I was going to do it yesterday and I got hung up on homework :( I'm still more than a year out, so it's ok I suppose. I can't even rightfully apply yet... unless....

I still think they will, or they will find an era. Or something. Future people suck like that.
It's more than a year out from when I want to attend AND until I finish these last classes, I won't have 60 credits. Which means that they would need more money for the application, my HS transcripts and my SAT scores. I have no idea where that stuff is but it's easier just to send the 60 credits that I will have and 30 bucks to apply.

but, modernism and post modernism have already been named. there are art styles within modernism like dada and futurism. I think there are already titles like that within post modernism, but I don't know them.
I see. now you make sense. why are you looking at applying now then, rather than closer to when you want to attend?

Because applying sooner, they look at transfer applications by first come first served, so I'd like to still have a chance to get in. Since the deadline is so far out, it must be that way for a reason. But... I'm so tired. I don't want to do any school stuff today, or ever. Just sleep. Sleep. @ [email protected]

well, it does you no good if you try to apply too early. isn't it always easier to get into a school by transfer than as a freshman. most schools are like that!

I would have no idea really? Their website says that most transfer students have at least a 3.6 GPA as well. I screwed myself when I forgot to turn in that final project for the very first class that I took (somehow forgot but I turned in the one for the other class? So, I don't get how it happened). I think I have a 3.5 or 3.45. Idk. I still need to call their education department. >.> I've been slacking...

I see. but most schools that are harder to get in, it's easier to do so as a transfer.
