one student<\/a> fought back instead of accepting her soul-crushing remarks and sabotage attempts.<\/p>\nLet\u2019s read the whole story.<\/p>\n
I am in college and studying for my extended diploma in art and design. I have a teacher this year who is all about conceptual art and has never drawn a day in her life.<\/p>\n
To keep this short, I will just list the things she had done before:<\/p>\n
Told me that my drawings are just copies and not real art.<\/p>\n
Told me that \u201canime\u201d isn\u2019t art and I need to be more realistic.<\/p>\n
Told my class to use AI art.<\/p>\n
Told me that my portfolio for University was not enough and to remove some of my best work.<\/p>\n
To put it lightly, this woman gets on my nerves.<\/p>\n
The teacher also wasn\u2019t afraid to embarrass her students.<\/p>\n
We were doing an industry-linked project with a local business during our practice project before our final major.<\/p>\n
She had arranged a visit for the head of the company to come and see our artwork as we were in a lesson.<\/p>\n
She spent 3\/4 of an hour looking at 2 people\u2019s work specifically (there are 9 of us in that class) and then eventually came over to me and my friends.<\/p>\n
We all specialize in character creation and concept art, looking at a lot of different animation and cartoons and using those styles.<\/p>\n
She brought over this woman and said \u201cThese are our character creators, they all really like anime but we\u2019re trying to get them to move away from that and look at some real art\u201d.<\/p>\n
We were shocked that she would just discredit our work in front of the woman who employed us to do work for her business.<\/p>\n
They were mortified\u2026 and angry.<\/p>\n
I am now on our final project.<\/p>\n
She had told me multiple times on our previous project that \u201cYou can\u2019t just do research on things you like, you need to broaden your research,\u201d so I decided to do just that.<\/p>\n
I made an entire research page on conceptual art and went into detail discussing an artist\u2019s themes and exploring the style of her work and saying how to me it doesn\u2019t make sense and that I don\u2019t have the same love for it as it seems illogical.<\/p>\n
I used a lot of points to back up my views and made sure that she couldn\u2019t turn it against me.<\/p>\n
We are also being taken on a trip to a conceptual art gallery that I will be doing the exact same with.<\/p>\n
She spent the first half of this year discrediting all my hard work and style, so now I will discredit hers.<\/p>\n
It clearly pushed her buttons.<\/p>\n
She has seen the research page but didn\u2019t even bother to properly read it, but she said how she likes that I\u2019ve put myself more open to looking at different artists.<\/p>\n
She had seen how I had spoken about it in her brief look over my work and quickly moved on to the next table.<\/p>\n
She completely forgot to look at the others\u2019 work on my table, but they didn\u2019t care and didn\u2019t want to talk to her anyway.<\/p>\n
I hope she knows how much we all don\u2019t like her way of teaching.<\/p>\n
She\u2019s the one who desperately needs to broaden her worldview!<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s see how Reddit reacted to this.<\/p>\n
An important point to consider.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Her remarks could have serious consequences.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Smart move.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Someone shares a story.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I agree.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
An art teacher like this could crush a student\u2019s confidence and make them give up on creating.<\/p>\n
Honestly.<\/p>\n
