How is saying you've spent your time developing your skills as an artist lying?

Have you lied to us?

if you've ever exchanged anything of value for any piece of creative work

Okay suppose they have questions about that.

coongratulations

"Oh yeah I worked on my art"

you free lanced

Now, why is that so much better than a gap in the resume

What did you do to develop your skills?

Because it shows initiative

it means you were trying

😐

Shows ambitiob

That you didn't just sit on your ass

it means you were not sitting on your ass doing nothing

"Oh yeah, I worked on my art, *and here's my portfolio*"

Ambition*

As much as I favor brutal honesty when it's directed my way

for art, showing your art means more than a fancy degree

just like programming, shipped product is the only thing that means anything

There IS actually a charm in the corporate world in rephrasing a negative into a positive.

Stop dragging yourself down and cross the rope bridge, fucker

yup

There's also the fact they want a photoshop user. I never use that.

everyone's in the same boat in interviews, etc

so>

its a fucking art program

Plenty of random little things cross me off.

Have you used GIMP?

watch some videos

No I know how photoshop works. i detest it though.

its *the* industry standard, there's plenty of content for help

that is a bit different

Other programs are better, but they won't give a shit.

well that's just being pedantic

no u

You call that pedantic?

You little shit?

NO U

Jesus

what're we on about
