What kind of student work is the ARC Scholarship Selection Committee looking for?
The ARC Scholarship requires a minimum of five (5) JPEG images of your best work. The Scholarship Selection Committee seeks examples of paintings and/or sculpture rendered from life and representative of nature as reflected in figurative studies and compositions, landscapes, still lifes, and portraits — work that seeks to capture a fully recognizable likeness of the model. Not conceptual likenesses of the model. We suggest submitting example works such as: a portrait rendered from life, a landscape, a still life, a painting from life, a drawing or painting from the figure (nude), a cast study in charcoal or grisaille pallette, or completed thematic works. Impressionist technique is acceptable, as long as the images reinforce the subject or theme. Important Note: Compositions rendered with the aid of projectors or copied from photographs DO NOT represent the mission and goals of the ARC and should not be offered as entries for this competition.
