Is it true that artists come out of college with even more ugly art?

I heard someone say this before. Are they actually actively teaching people to have worse art?

Well....

A cursory glance of the CalArts KYM page shows an example from an artist known as RCDart.

The example on the left is from a picture of theirs drawn in 2014. The two examples on the right are after their admittance to the school in 2016.

BTW, those are supposed to be Steve Rogers and Finn from Star Wars.

So, based on this small sample, you can conclude that one's art has the potential to go from good to barely passable for Steven Universe concept art.

Making "art" so unbelievably hideous really does take some serious skill. It's REPULSIVE.

Seems to be done on purpose. Any negative feedback can be used as an excuse to accuse the critic of some bigotry.

Imagine paying tens of thousands to unlearn everything that made you a good artist
