Best of luck




Hi Matthew,
I don't feel like I can give you advice but I just wanted to wish you luck with your decision.

Personally, I have learned 95% of what I know about art by taking classes from local instructors, from workshops, reading books, and mainly just practicing. I do have a degree (in petroluem engineering) but obviously that hasn't been any bit of help in the art world. Do I wish I had a degree in fine arts? I don't think it would help me where I am now, I took some classes at the University of Texas in art before I switched to petroleum engineering and they were all geared towards the abstract. This was back in the 1980's. But I am glad to have some kind of degree.

When I have a big decision to make, I pray about it and listen for the answer.
Joan
