Foundation is finally over. It has been confidence building, exciting, productive and interesting - but also the most stressful, exhausting, testing few months I've ever experienced. For that I am so grateful. Out of everything I learnt this year the most important thing I came away with is that you get out what you put in. I surprised myself by coming away awarded with a Merit but I was utterly amazed that people actually wanted to buy my work - over the course of two weeks while the exhibition was up I made £164 just by selling my art. I now feel ready to take on my BA armed with all of the knowledge I have gained this year.
