College Art Portfolio Examples

Explore art portfolios that got our students into top colleges.

Prima Materia Art Institute is known for its College Art Portfolio Program, that has a near 100% college acceptance rate. We take each student and prepare them to be their best. Below, you'll find examples of college art portfolios that got our students into their dream school.

You’ll notice every college art portfolio is different – not only in the artwork itself (whether the artist preferred landscapes or portraits or abstract), but also in the style (realistic, sketchy, colorful, muted colors). This is because our curriculum is designed to nurture each students’ individuality. We understand that every student has different goals, interests, and characteristics and our specialty is to cultivate that.
