Does anyone...?

Does anyone know anything about writing a biography for an art exhibit? You know, the little one-sheet bio that goes beside your art that has a thumbnail of one of your pieces and a blurb about yourself? Actually I think that's an artist's statement... The bio is something different from what I've read. Only about a paragraph that's a summary of your education and art experience (which I have very little of, so)... but I bet they'll want a statement, too. =_=;;
Apparently I have to have one "ASAP". I've never written one ever and I don't want to just BS something... Needless to say I'm a bit put-out about how unorganized this whole thing is. We sent back applications so they could send us contracts...well only two of us have apparently completed applications (they didn't say which two) and they emailed us the contracts (all of us) anyhow...then mailed us corrected contracts the next day. We are getting down to the wire and it seems like they're procrastinating more than I am - and they hold exhibits ALL THE TIME.
Is this an artist thing? :|
In RP news...there really isn't any...? I've been mucking about in dressing rooms a bit, but I just can't bring myself to commit to an actual pan-fandom game (amended because I am still in my own game - but I don't think that actually counts). Maybe an extended break is a blessing in disguise, and yet it's also extremely frustrating.
IRL news? Not much here either. Did some Christmas shopping on Wednesday and have been [slowly] working on arts. And getting frustrated about that, too. :X

Though I wish I were still a student most of the time.
