I have been working on my BA degree in studio arts and english; due to my love of both. Lately I have been considering grad school, but find it very hard to get a direct answer about how exactly grad school in the arts (what i would be taking grad for is fine arts) would positively affect my career and my abilities, which will help me live out my dreams of doing art for galleries and museums, and writing. Honestly, I think I have the ability to branch out as an artist or with my talent and enter the comic book career track, or otherwise use my talents for a job. I am just wondering if for an artist like me and writer (working on my first novel) if grad school would be worth it? Any advice? thanks!
From what I researched getting a Masters in the Fine Arts is only really necessary if you want to teach. If you really want to go to graduate school you could look into business for example if you want to open your own gallery. Art administration, museum studies and conservation are also possibilities. http://www.utexas.edu/cofa/career/media/... |
