Confessions of an Art Student: Digital Zine

What is Art School really like? 

How do you even break into "The Industry"? What even is a "craft"? Do you really need to go to art school to be a successful artist?

Take a look at the experiences of 18 different artists from across the spectrum, from self-taught to those who attended Private-for-Profit Art School™. From funky comics, charming illustrations, and heartfelt poetry, to honest written critique, learn from those who have been through the worst of it and come out the other side.

About the Zine

Confessions of an Art Student is a 32-page full-color PDF zine created by 18 different artists, some working professionals, and some still in the thick of school.

By ordering, you'll be helping support these beautiful people and their work, as well as getting an insight into what the shiny Art School marketing team doesn't want you to see. All proceeds will be donated to Panimation – a collective of women, trans, and non-binary artists supporting each other and working in the animation industry.

This zine was originally available as a limited run print-on-demand physical zine but is now a downloadable pay-what-you-want PDF zine.
