  • MrSmith Vinz is right.
    i went to art school, you need to wake up and smell the capitalist coffee and stop living the dream (dreaming the life more like).
    well,you have until 6 months after your graduation before reality bites, enjoy it while you can.

    6 months?

    Out of art college i got a job at a west end gallery, the first private view came along and some guys from the year below turned up. Midway through having a chat they asked me what i do now and i said i worked here to which one replied "so you've given up on being an Artist then?" That was my coffee moment. 3 years on and i'm still doing a similar thing, I know others who spend 3 days a week as a gallery tech and the rest in their studios, college doesn't prepare you for real life. I guess you just fit in somewhere and that's it for a while. Still. it's not all doom and gloom...
