Student Experiences
“I am so happy to see that all the effort, working hard in College and at home has a very good feedback, I am meeting other painters and artists and I realise that the variety of things we learnt in College is unique and exceptional, I mean the possibility to understand sculpture, combine materials, jewellery, drawing and paintings as an art expression is very useful. I can only say THANK YOU for this 2 years, teachers gave us the tools and waked up in us the motion. At the end I have to say “FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS no matter what”
