Art School

I was watching t.v. the other night and just happen to see a commercial for an at home art school. It offered this test to rate your skills. I remember seeing this exact same test when I was a kid. It was in a 'Cartoons' magazine. I took the test then and mailed it in. I received a call about a month and half late and the person on the other end of the line said that I had potential. All I had to do was send him $300.00 for art supplies and the study guides. Being only 11 years old at the time, there was no way for me to do that. My parents would have gladly found a way to get the money for me, but they had to work too hard for the money they earned and I never felt comfortable asking them for it.

I'll send this off and see what they have to say. They say that there is a chance that I could receive a scholarship if it's good enough. I haven't done any research in this company so I have no clue if it's real or not but I have nothing else to do so I'll get it a try. I'm going to mail it off today and I'll let you know how it turns out.


Now I have to get back to the portrait of my youngest child. I'm sure that if I don't get it finished shortly she will give me a sound fist shaking followed by a good finger snapping.
