1 You said you were interested in classical oil painting. Are you a student in the Academy of Fine Arts now?
If so, do you want to continue to take the art postgraduate exam? Or other majors? For graduate students, all students in the national unified examination should take part, including foreign languages, politics and two professional courses. If it is the practical direction of art, then the school will also test the students' painting practice during the interview or when; If it's the history of China art or the history of western art, you won't take more exams. However, no matter what direction the postgraduate entrance examination takes, there will be interviews outside the written test results. The key to deciding whether to interview is the national unified score line of foreign languages and politics. If you are an art student, I suggest you prepare your foreign language well. In this way, you can determine whether you are taking an art test or a non-art test.
If you are not an art student, I suggest you find your own interests. You said you wanted to go back to your hometown. You can see if there is any relationship at home. I can introduce you to some jobs in the future. If you need a postgraduate diploma, you should work hard in that direction. If you don't need it, you can directly find a job. If it doesn't matter where you come from, and you work by yourself, you can see what professionals are needed there. However, I suggest that you still focus on undergraduate majors.
You have obtained the teacher qualification certificate now, which is a good start. You can consider being a teacher in a middle school or a primary school in the future, which is also very good. You can teach children to draw.
Finally, you like classical oil paintings, which is good. I also like classical oil paintings very much. However, personally, classical oil painting has high requirements for sketch and classical oil painting techniques (such as the use of media). If you like it, I hope you can stick to it with your whole life's enthusiasm. I believe you will succeed!
