    Hmmm I always thought going to Art School was meant to learn how to use the tools...not become an artist. If your an artist, your already an artist school or not. But where do you learn how to use the tools to advance your artistic skills?

      Gladwell says you'll probably have to put in 10,000 hours to achieve any sustainable form of success, regardless of 'talent'.

      If you're not already putting those hours by whatever means possible BEFORE art school, failure to start putting them in DURING
      art school pretty much assures failure, regardless of how many or which brushes and paints one acquires.

      You want a master's brush stroke?

      Don't just make one that looks like your teacher's.

      Find the one you really want to make and do it eleventy-billion times until it's always, always, always right.

      School can speed that up somewhat, but there will never be a real shortcut.

      So people who think school is the shortcut... well... you see my point.
