As I very much liked to draw and paint as a child, I entered a special art program in high school, which was very much like being in an art school imbedded in a regular high school curriculum.

I went to art school when I was little.

I was hoping to attend the School of Visual Arts and had a portfolio built up.

I went to a private school in Singapore and they had an incredible arts program. Every day I was doing something artistic.

The only thing they can't teach you at art school is art.

I want to promote the introduction of art history in primary schools and to convince the general public that, even in a period of economic crisis, arts funding is an absolute necessity at the federal, state, and local levels.

I went to art school, I think it helped me a great deal because it taught me who I am.

I went to art school actually when I was sixteen years old.

When I was in sixth grade, they slashed the budgets for all of our school art programs, so my grandparents enrolled me in art classes at Worcester Art Museum, which I attended from sixth to 12th grade.

Only 10 percent of people who go to art school will still be making art in 10 years. To some extent, you have to want to do it. It's hard. It is something you really have to stick with for it to work.
