Hi everyone just a quick question, if you are a decent graphics designer/artist and decide to make an art portfolio does that help your chances any?
If you are really good, then it definitely will. You can put a link to your work in the supplemental section of the application. I made a flickr account, uploaded some of my art, and then linked my flickr page.
Sure! Show them what you’ve got! You can make a blog that’s a portfolio of projects and include the link.
I am in the same situation as OP. I love to draw, drawing is a passion and a hobby. I’m debating on whether or not to submit an art portfolio? I don’t think I would consider myself “really good”, but it really depends on who is looking at the artwork.
