The MONART Art School of Ottawa is offering a Portfolio Development course consisting of weekly 90-minute classes that run all year long. Registration is ongoing and students can start any time.

This course would be of interest to students who are planning to apply to a university, college or academic program (such as Canterbury High School) that requires a portfolio submission for admission.

This course covers the fundamentals of drawing, design and composition that will give students a greater advantage when submitting portfolios. The instructor will suggest work and assignments tailored to the individual student’s portfolio requirements and will instruct on how to improve necessary skills. Personal consultation will be provided on students’ existing portfolio and application projects.

In twelve sessions students will develop drawing, paintings and mixed media projects with a focus on proportions, rendering with better understanding of the gray scale value, different application of techniques and mediums and will be provided with two sessions of figure drawing from a model and portraiture.

In addition there will be a practice Portfolio review and guidelines on documenting works. Materials are mostly provided by Monart. Any additional materials needed based on individual’s submissions will be discussed in the first session.

We would appreciate your co-operation in passing this information along to any interested students.
