I hate art class?


Question Posted Saturday October 27 2012, 6:49 pm

So I'm taking this art class at school (I'm in ninth grade) and I absolutely hate it. I'm really worried that this class is going to ruin my GPA. The thing is about our teacher is that she only wants us to draw her way and not our way. It literally sucks all of the creativity out of you. She's never given anyone an A on anything because she criticizes everything. Everything is always wrong. She would probably give Picasso a C because his work was too abstract. She recently marked down my last drawing because " there were too many lines showing." What's even worse is that she never tells us how she's grading something or what she expects out of us. When we ask her, she ignores us completely. I've never done anything wrong in her class and I'm a straight-A student. The class only lasts one quarter, so I only have to survive another month of this. Can you give me any advice on how to deal with her? Thanks!

Listen, no one can critisize your art. Art is the subject I am good in and the best at in my class. Every artist has a different interpertation of art. Art is everything around you, everything has been created by someone so it is considered an art. I think you better talk to your art teacher and tell her that art is not a skill because anyone can create art. Pablo Picasso is an amazing artist. His work is very original and everyone has their own way of creating it. Look at this site: 744autumn.weebly.com <-- Show ur teacher the title page (first page) of the website. Hope u like the website and hope this helps!

Is art class in your school a requirement? If not, why did you take it? It sounds like to me, that teacher isn't very nice to her students. I begin ton wonder if she's even certified to teach that class? If you are able to transfer out of that class and take a different one, it might be best. Otherwise, just do the best that you can in your current class.
