Please apply by letter. There is a date chart below. Give us the dates in order of preference. It is important to let us know of any special needs, including diet. If you come from abroad, please give us the name and address of a friend or sponsor in this country, or of your consul, in case of illness or accident.

Examples of your work:
I am interested to see examples of your work, especially sketch books, as this will help to assess what direction you need to take. Some painters bring photographs or slides of their work which are easy to carry.
