• Big No-Nos Art Students Make.

Big No-Nos Art Students Make.

Eating in or around the fume hood.
Assuming the garbage in the cans in the drawing studio is still edible.
Wasting your perfectly good everclear as a solvent.
Using food containers to mix paint thinners.
Not adjusting the easel accordingly.
Getting hair tangled in the horrific cage sculpture they’re making.
Not making sure a work area is properly ventilated.
Dumping toxic chemicals down the drains.
Wearing open-toed shoes in the welding shop.
Not giving yourself enough leeway from rotating blades and chains during your Kill Machine demonstration in Critique

This guide to art school survival will help you save years of torture, misspent money, and sliced-off fingertips. This is what art school is REALLY about.

If I can get this book published, I pledge to use some of my profits to start a scholarship for low-income students to get art supplies. (I was one, and supplies are very expensive.)

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

"This site is too deep and funny for words....I read every word.....I am an art student...." - Taylor Negron, comedian, actor, artist

"I rolled through 'My Art Comes Before My Grade.'...You're keeping the FUNNY rolling right along while at the same time exposing the bullsh*t of teachers, students and the defining of Art and assignments...(GOOD SHOW)!" - Gregory Hollimon, "Strangers With Candy"

"Holy shit! Art School Survival = awesome." - Michael Shamalla, MFA, Landscape Architecture

"The hygiene one made me laugh out loud. i had a flea named Diego myself once." - Sarah Rohan, BFA, Painting

"Your book is reality...I am now realizing what it means to be a starving artist." - Kary Fernandez, BA, Arts

"Overall the site is rather disappointing...There are lots of funny things about art-school tropes. Daniel Clowes did it well. It was as smart as it was cutting. Your project is not...Your students deserve better than this. Your behavior is disgraceful. For someone who is teaching art and clams to care about artists and students, you are a disappointment." - Matt Kenyon., associate professor of New Media
