The portfolio requirements include the selection of three-15 of the student's strongest, finest examples of his/her artwork to take to the competition."The pieces selected should show ambition in idea, execution, style and technical skill," according to Professor Cundiff. "Of the pieces selected, the student may select options of what kinds of media tobring," she said. The three-dimensional work can consist of either sculpture, ceramics, fibers, weaving or mixed media; black and white pieces including a variety of media including graphite, charcoal, chalk, scratch board, pen and ink, ink wash drawings and black and white media or mixed media, and colored pieces including oils, watercolors, acrylics, pastels, colored pencils, tempera, color prints or other color media.
