I compiled these statements a decade ago and they still speak truth today. Stop giving these vampires your time or your money.

Jesus Christ my phone's "alarm" went off making no sound but sliding a notification down and I forgot to post the image.

This?

...come to that conclusion!

How did you find this site? Go away. We don't like RISD niggers.

Do you think it's going to get any better?

>muh materialism

So were you always a marxist or did the faculty of your $75,000 art school give you a gentle push to the left on your way out the door and onto the street? Did they at least leave you with a couple of store-bought fluorescent lights like the picture in the OP so you could start your own exhibit?

What school are you going to? Open "maps.google.com" and make a general search for "art class", "art school" or "atelier" and see what pops up. There might be a better option nearby.

It's not going to get better for him, almost guaranteed. They should be giving him the best they have to offer right now, and if they aren't that's justification enough for transferring immediately anyway. He has to leave and he has to do it soon before he's wasted much more of his time or money. Going to a GOOD art school is a dubious enough financial decision, let alone one with a weak mileage load that will send you home four years after the fact better than 27.325% of /ic/ at best.

I'd rather be stuck in the past than stuck in debt or the unemployment line like you're going to be, my man.

Let us know how your MFA from the Slade is coming along Eurocuck.

There are not enough rich parents in the world to fill these schools halls. Make no mistake, they make their money by filling their prospective, often middle-class students heads full of bullshit. Even schools that have something to teach (which are the exception rather than the rule) are guilty of encouraging hopeless cases of the sort they've seen come through thousands of times before to apply and have their financial futures ruined.

>Since you have no job you can spend 10 hours a day..

You can have no job and spend 10 hours a day doing art and studying from home, better yet, you can get a part time job and earn a wage so that by the time your art improves (or by the time you give up) you'll have actually accrued capital instead starting your adult life burdened by debt.

>You get a job at McDonalds or whatever, work for room/board, have about 4 hours a day to do art, except you are also brokeass tired doing it.

Ideally you aren't forced out into a terrible financial situation right out of highschool like burying yourself in a debt you may never really recover from (even if you get your "dream job" doing storyboards for Steven Universe). There is absolutely nothing wrong with staying home and getting a 20/hr a week Job while learning in lieu of attending some parasitical institution.

Living on your own in a studio apartment as a NEET would cost you under $15,000 a year

>Through college you could acquire a career, solo its really unknown.

More people that work as artists do not have an arts degree than those that do

>Solo might be worth saving 50k for a studio/setup/ paints or computers but might be expensive enough to be more than college

A Wacom Cintiq 27HD at present is among the single most expensive and practical "art supplies" you can buy (that isn't something stupid like a "historically significant" "artisan pen" or something) and it costs well under $3,000. A computer to do whatever you could conceivably want to do with that device costs even less.

There is no way you could come anywhere near spending the $40,000 annually that many art schools ask of their students learning on your own.

>Art School sucks but it might still be better than the alternative of languishing in parents house and having no fun or friends.

There is nothing keeping you in your house and friendless. Your entire post is riddled with false dichotomies.
