☕The following notes are based on my personal experiences,
what I was informed from person-to-person, and
academic researches.
You might think:
"Should I get an Art Degree"
My Responses ☕:
☕ Not only there are amateur artists training in classes,
but the benefits and outcomes as well♡
☕ I am not trying to put a gun to
your head and make you go to college;
and I am not saying that obtaining a degree(s)
is a waste either♡
☕If you do happen to get across "sad & hard" career advising from academic counselors, and art professionals
(especially ones who just met you), keep in mind that they had not been in your lens of your artistic vision, expression, and intentions more than your potential.
Other's Consideration 1:
"You don't have to go to college
for certain art careers;
Bill Gates doesn't have a degree!!"
My responses☕: ☕Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Invader Zim, did not finished college
when he got a job at Nickelodeon.
➰Jobs like for illustration, comic book, and industries (Disney, Warner Bros, etc.), educational backgrounds
most likely don't get asked for.
☕I know, and talked to, artists who "reached the stars" without degrees.
➰But they got into business because *they worked very hard to get there. {~*Bradley Spence, MFA}
➿And the instantly "Lucky"
ones are *1 in 10,000.
{~*Katherine Gray, MFA;
Resident Evaluator, Netflix series, Blown Away} ☕There are famous people who have degrees, even though it is not required for their positions. ➰Some of them includes: ➿Tim Burton ➿Butch Hartman, the creator of Fairly Oddparents ➿ Steven Spielberg ➿ Chris Sanders, the creator of Lilo & Stitch
➰"You don't need a degree, but it doesn't hurt either. People who can't afford to go to university don't need to stress about it cos they can still get jobs, so because you have had the opportunity for higher education it's a bonus, not a mistake."
{~@Yuagiin,
Artist, Professional, Film & Animation}
☕I was informed that *not all artists who got a Masters of Fine Arts are on the path to teaching at academic environments. {*Alison Ragguette, Professor, Studio Art}
☕ The art degree does not only mean that one obtained general education; ➰but it *can make the artist ➿stronger, ➿get broader recognitions, ➿& have more opportunity doors open. {*Matthew Poole, MFA}
Other's Consideration 2:
"You can learn how to do art via free tutorials, instead of going to art classes."
My responses☕: ☕There are awesome art tutorials, especially on DeviantArt and YouTube {*cough* Bob *cough* Ross *cough*}, and how-to draw/do art books.
☕But taking art classes, even at college, helps you get *better at art faster. {*Bradley Spence, MFA}
☕In art classes, not only you'll be lectured about the basics, but the students can be mentored by professionals one-on-one. ➰"college isn't without its merits...
teachers can provide goals to keep you motivated,
and teach skills that might take longer to figure out on your own."
{-Lindsay Cibos, illustrator/comic artist/writer}
☕What do you prefer? To get help & counseling from art professors who been seeing how hard you worked on your artwork in class, and see how you been developing in your originality, skill, and growth? Or get tips from art professionals who does not know your background and tribulations more than your ability?
Other's Consideration 3:
"COLLEGE IS EXPENSIVE!!"
(Including non-Art Paths)
My responses ☕:
☕Not everyone who are attending classes are rich.
➰I know people who came from poor families,
then lived flourishing lives after
finishing college.
☕Thankfully, there's financial aid, scholarships,
and supporting programs available.
➰And there are jobs that allows
students to work and study.
🤍 There are additional financial help from
extended opportunities programs,
& semi-living programs,
especially for disabled students, & veterans.
🎓"I know it's hard... but then, you'll proper"
{~Sherri Pierce, DSPS Department}
🔘 People who got luxurious lifes without higher education is a *small percentage.
{*Barstow Counseling Center}
➰"You think education is expensive?
TRY IGNORANCE!"
{~random sticker}
Backlashes: 🗣"Fan Art is a big NO NO!!!" (for busniess/professional works & applications) ☕It depends on what the artists are applying for... ☕A commercial store, Hot Topic, sold printed t-shirts of "Arts made by Fans for Fans". ☕Some Art Galleries would feature artworks
of/with "copyright" contents.
☕Professionals would sell their artworks, and merchandise, based on franchises, especially from the busniess-based websites.
🗣"Artists don't get paid well." ☕It depends on the individual and perseverance. ➰The art community is growing. ☕I know, and been told about, artists that do get paid well, and can live on the money that she/he earns. ☕Nowadays, thanks to technology and social media, networking art is getting broader.
➰Location and Demographics can also play role.
➿Children are great audiences ;) {- Susan Templeton, LMFT}
➿Zoos don't only hire zookeepers ;) There are jobs for Graphic Designers and Artists too ;3 Animal Face Painting anyone? 🐯🦁🦊
🤹♀️There are parents who want artists/designers to decorate and design room for thier babies and children ;) ☕You may not be a "millionaire" right away; *it can be hard at first, and it can take time. {* @tamberella} 🍗When the KFC guy started selling at first, nobody bought his signature fried chicken. But look at him now ;)
➰Above all, create art because you enjoy it.
➿For some reason, I known a therapist who enjoys helping her clients, even though she does not get paid well.♡
