whats the statue of limitations for cheating at art college? i was only there for 2 semesters and this is only about 1 class.

Eh whatever.

Anyways for some reason the school had a Really basic adobe illustrator class you had to take. and i liked the teacher well enough so it wasn't too bad, but the program just wasn't my cup of tea, especially since most of the assignments were done with the assumption that you didn't know how to draw at all and so you were just tracing images you found online to turn them into vectors.

And i grok what they were Trying to teach. but what it actually taught me was where the 'vectorize' button was.

#the one assignment i remember that did have like actual artistic input was making a portrait with words #and it was meant to show how to use text on a vector line #but i just opacity locked a bunch of griffin McElroy polygon quotes and used them as halftones in photoshop over a picture of him #i was 17 and so its been over 5 years.#last i heard they still had it hanging up #important note: i did not know who griffin McElroy was at the time of making that #i just dont give a shit about celebrities and so decided to pick the first face that came up in my YouTube recommendations #and then taz changed my brain chemistry
