I got the email the other day. Boo-yah! I did it!
Of course, I'm not done yet. This exam process is like a series of medieval challenges.
My next task is to go out into the forest, and chop down the tallest tree I can find-- with a PAINTBRUSH!
Not really. Next weekend, I need to report to a studio in Queens, where I will be given a small image to reproduce large-scale. I must complete the project, start-to-finish, in the time allotted (about seven hours), while also demonstrating good skills and a courteous, professional demeanor.
And then, if I pass that test... I think I'm in. ? !!!
So, keep your fingers crossed! I'm in the home stretch. And no matter what happens, I made it this far, which is awesome.
I passed!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! And if you use wire bristles, and swing the brush side to side against the trunk, eventually, you'll be able to chop it down. :) Yay, roo!!

Congrats to you! Best wishes to you as you complete your next task.
Is this for a job or for school?

Thanks, you guys!
Kathi-- it's a test to join a professional organization-- which hopefully will lead to jobs.
