Ladies and Gentlemen....

...meet the University of Iowa's School of Art and Art History's top graduate candidate in Printmaking!
(Fanfare, Ta-Da's and Cheering) I just wanted to share with you part of my next adventure that has worked itself out. I worked really hard to get my portfolios, slides and statements ready to send off. Now they've been gone a while and I got a telephone call from the head of the printmaking department at Iowa (my top choice of school). He wanted to tell me personally that I was accepted and that I was his top candidate and if there was money to be passed out that I would have first consideration according to him. So kids, I'm goin' to Iowa. I'm taking my husband with me this time, in case any of you were thnking of consoling my sweet, sexy pudge-bunny. (he-he)

Technically I will be working to achieve my MFA (Master of Fine Arts) in printmaking. That is a three year course of study. The center for the book is also located on the same campus, so I could tack on a year and become certified in Book Arts (binding, type setting, font design, etc.) I am going to be an old lady by the time this is all done. God! please let me find a rewarding tenure position out of all of this!

Of course all our friends (LJ and others) are invited to visit us in the cornfield captial of the USA. If anyone is up for Crop-Circle creation, this would be the place to do it Iowa City is a tiny town that only exists because of the college. Everything else is CORN.
