art college

College devoted to the arts- and the general study of subjects such as fine art, graphic design, illustration, textiles, 3d/games design, philosophy, music etcetera. Art college is a surreal haven for artistically diverse folk, recreational drug users and enthusiasts, spontaneous philosophical discussion during lectures, and those wishing to escape the task of repeating what is esentially another two years of high school condensed into a standard college semester. Art college is unique- nothing more, nothing less. There is nothing more commonplace at an art college than to be unique or different, and there is a decreased tendency to discriminate against diverse or eccentric students, as most possess a creative streak of artistically inclined traits or attributes. Those who don't, will sure enough have some by the time they leave. Because of their nature art colleges have a high leniancy and acceptance towards creativity, artistic pursuits, and not to forget- the drugs. A good majority, if not a vast majority of all art students have tried a recreational substance (me included :), mainly those of the hallucinogen/psychedelic category. Although this is not always the case, drug use or enthusiasm is fairly commonplace at art college, if not a potential rite of passage. Saying this however- not everyone have taken substances. There are those who do, have done, aspire to, or simply haven't. The bottom line is, expect someone you meet there to have done something (lord knows I have :P).
Those who enter art college usually leave with an increased passion for artistic pursuits or careers, awareness of the finer things in life, and generally value the time they studied there. The best darn college there is- no contest :)
If you ever need an excuse to- consume copius amounts of recreational drugs :), pursue a more interesting and artistic career direction, or simply meet loads of great people who won't chastise you for being different... then go to art college- you wont regret it ;)

the art of war

A thosand year old text which Sun Tzu
wrote depicting various wartime strategies

then our modern day ones.
ironicaly its very simple and terribly
short, shrunken down to font size 8 it
fits on about 10 pages, anyone with a
grade 5 mentality could read it, which
also makes it dangerous. The art of war;
it was ok. warwarfarsoft taco

art bum

A person who is on the edge of doing art work, be it writing, acting, playing music or what have you. Although this person thinks about being artsy and doing art all the time, he or she rarely does it.
That art bum thinks he'll be the next picasso, but all he does is daydream.

fart art

Generally speaking, the term 'Fart Art' relates to the abstract contemporary art formed by the human arse at its most creative - usually involves brown, green or yellow paint of entirely organic origin, combined with an explosive, resonant fart. Fart Art is not often on public display, but common galleries for this particar form of artwork tend to be the inside of bog bowls or discarded underwear. Most Fart Artists are male for some obscure reason, although occasionally fart artisans of the female variety can be found amongst the ranks of students.

Deviant Art

A website/gallery where anyone can upload his/her art for other users to see and comment on. Primarily, a Deviant Art user is going to find either anime/manga (perverted) or photography (pornography under the category of "artistic nude").
The wonderful thing about Deviant Art is that anyone can upload his/her artwork. The crappy thing about Deviant Art is that anyone can put his/her up.
