Pass It On… asked:


I have an ugly ’70s style’, spindle-looking support column in the middle of my living room. Is there an inexpensive and creative way to make it ‘blend’ more with the room? The decor I have now is kind of an old world “art nouveau” look with a lot of wrought iron scrollwork pieces (lamps, wall hangings, etc…). The colors are sage green (furniture), persimmon (walls) and cream (window coverings). Also, the column is cream right now…should I paint it to match the walls?

well, as we all get to our junior year in high school, we revel in the fact that now we are part of the elite. Then we duck behind a corner and panic about the impending applications and tests.

I myself have been drawn to the art world- and while looking around at institutions, i found CalArts and kinda liked it. Since high school, i participated in making props for plays and i am proud i can make realistic furniture and decor with only house paint and cardboard. In fact, the school kept one of my murals permanently to use in their annual jazz dance. So i was thinking of attending their theater department and work on props.

And so i was wondering, does anybody have any suggestions about getting there (portfolio contents)? what i should do when i get there?

If you don’t, do you have a suggestion for another art school?

replies are very welcome.
