Hi
I have done the same thing...successfully. I have tutored a nine year old and a seventeen year old who was doing so badly in his other uppper school lessons
but so visually talented I approached the college he was interested in and asked them what they would suggest re portfolio requirements and took it from there...
I'm in Australia - so it might be different...
- Make sure their drawing skills in the principles and elements of design are up to standard. Give the student exercises in negative and positive shapes and tell them you want them to use a visual diary every day.
- In the portfolio there should be examples - good examples of their skills - not just throw ins. If you have an example of line, tone, painting etc it would be good.
