    Michelle Hendley commented on Michelle Hendley's album: Thank you so much for your feedback! I really appreciate it. Also, this was my second time applying. Third time's the charm right? Lol

      Anna Hudzik Did you ever get your feedback from Dawn Givens? Mine wasn't particularly specific (too soon. Needs to draw more), but I was able to ask her like 30 questions and that was incredibly helpful.

      Michelle Hendley Yes I was. She gave me a short list of things I need to work on (life drawing, composition, adding narrative, negative space, etc). I will see her again in October for Portfolio Day (at least I assume she will be representing CalArts that day), and I hope...  moreYes I was.

I'm hoping the AnimatedBuzz folks here can give me more specific direction and advise :)

      Meri Burgess ok well I can't say much since I've been rejected twice, but I think you've got some great work in here, you just need to refine it a little bit. You have some really exciting pages (3, 10, 11, 13, 18) that are really impressive, and then you have some bo...  moreok well I can't say much since I've been rejected twice, but I think you've got some great work in here, you just need to refine it a little bit. You have some really exciting pages (3, 10, 11, 13, 18) that are really impressive, and then you have some boring ones mixed in. With such a competitive pool of applicants, you can't give them any reason to doubt you, so only put in the best of the best, even if its just barely the minimum required. Anyways, yea, I don't have much else to say, so that's my two cents  less

  • About Me Sup My name is Michelle. I have lost touch with art, and I'm trying to find it again. It's been a vicious cycle of finding the inspiration to draw but then getting stuck in the longest year of artist's block ever. It's the worst, by far. I have goals. I'm trying to make it to CalArts (California Institute of the Arts) to study Character Design and Animation. I will not stop until I get there. It's tough, but I'm perfectly capable of making it happen. Other things: I'm transgender. I have a vlog on YouTube (my username is NoNittaWigg). I'm hoping I can get some help with my portfolio for CalArts. Please feel free to crit the shit out of my work :D
  • Interests I love martial art flicks, animated movies, comic books/ graphic novels, video games, make up and fashion design, drag queens, and just art in general.

    This is the rejected portfolio I submitted to CalArts for Fall 2011. Forgive the fail photos...I don't have a scanner and didn't want to un-tape the pieces from the portfolio. This includes pieces from the main portfolio and some selections from my sketchbooks. Please give me some feedback as to how I can improve my next submission. Thanks :D
