The last paragraph explains where so many people go wrong and come out of university pissed off and in debt. Once you realize that you create the world around you, there are no more excuses. With this mindset the only way you go is forward and up.

I really liked the way you pointed things about being in an art school. I did a university course of visual arts here in my city in Brazil- not an incredible graduation, I must say, but I learnt a lot on it! And I think it could have been even better if I had been more open minded, more participative- just what you mentioned. <br /><br />It&#39;s always great to come and take some time to visit your blog- always some good text and experience here, and, of course, always great art!!! =)Eduardo Vieirahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05870000280407465247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374065024660577167.post-65256161847551314172009-11-27T22:50:45.881+11:002009-11-27T22:50:45.881+11:00It&#39;s great to see amazing artists like yourself get artblock sometimes.
