Ah... that makes sense.... that's one of the stupid things I did when the studio was closing.... thought I could make ONE portfolio to cover everything... boy was that a big time-wasting mistake!

I talked to her once on the phone for advice and she was such a nice lady. She had just come in from buying groceries but too the time to answer a few questions!

I spoke with her husband who is the Illustration Department Head. She's "hoping" to get a full time position teaching at Ringling. Ringling would be idiots for NOT hiring her!! She's an amazingly talented illustrator and yes, super nice.
