Admission

The process for a professional (creative) exam for those applying for full-time study in the field of "Painting".
The exam is divided into three sections: "Drawing"- 100 points, "Painting"- 100 points, and "Composition"- 100 points.
The applicant chooses the theme for the composition by randomly selecting pre-chosen examination themes.
In "Drawing" the applicants use regular pencils of varying degrees of softness (H, HB, B, etc.). The applicant must accurately position a person's portrait on a tablet, appropriately construct a portrait of a person while taking into account the rules of proportion, and demonstrate a three-dimensional perspective while carefully manipulating light and shade. The activity on the theme of "Drawing" must be finished on a tablet measuring 40 x 55 cm.

In "Painting" the applicants use oil paint, watercolour, gouache, tempera, and acrylic techniques. The given person's portrait needs to be properly positioned on a canvas or 40x55 cm paper tablet. It is necessary to process a person's portrait while taking into account the guidelines for the right way to design a person in fine art and the right way to employ colour proportions in a colour scheme. The work must be finished, and it must be seen that the applicant is able to apply drawing techniques.

In "Composition" the applicant uses acrylic and oil paints, watercolours, gouache, and tempera. The composition is graded on the basis of the originality of the subject matter, the ideological content of the composition, as well as the appropriate use of colour in artistic and ideological expression. The images are expressed through plastic solutions, and special consideration is given to constructing proportions and a carefully chosen composition, in addition to the semantic and colour harmony of the theme, work skills, and level of performance.
