Hey guys. I’m glad to be finally posting my “mental breakdown survival guide”. As you know I struggle a lot with mental health, and so I have been through a lot of breakdowns. So many that I actually dropped out of university after 3 weeks in 2016 and had to take the whole year off. Because of this, I’ve made it my mission to help others with mental health issues as much as I can, so you don’t have to go through what I’ve been through.
Anyway, here is my guide. I tried to keep it general, and actually useful. If you have any questions or additions please feel free to add them.
And as ever, if you want to talk to me about studying with mental illness or want to see a post on a specific topic, please feel free to message me.
So I'm going into my second year at parsons and I had trouble making friends last year because I hated everyone. Do the people get better as you go into your major or am I just going to be surrounded by mostly idiots for the next three years
Lol probably idiots. Most of my friends are/were from out of school.
I mean you are setting yourself up for failure with that mindset BUT reality is reality

I had Kathlin Airgiro for the Summer Intensive program and omg she was legit the worst!!!
Good to know 👌🏼 Expand on that if you'd like
This.
and i thought only bob ross knew what was up
this single post is more useful to me then four years of art school
We did it in color study class on my college and it’s incredible the difference between using red/blue/yellow than cyan/magenta/yellow. The purple was colored like shit, so as the greens. Than we tried the actuall primary colors and it FELT SO GOOD!
I JUST TESTED IT IN MY ART PROGRAM AND HOLY SHIT
IT WORKED REALLY WELL
On the left we have dissapoinment; on the right, love.
Then why do they teach us that RBY are primary colours in Pre-KG????
To mess with our heads….
Or because they think that cyan and magenta are too difficult for kids to learn? Lame either way
Reshare to save lives
Okay, no. No no no no no no no no NO.
Listen up you fucks because I’m not wasting thousands of dollars on an art degree to watch y’all fuck up basic color theory.
Red, yellow, and blue are the primary colors
If you’re using p i g m e n t.
Do you hear me? When you’re using traditional media, fucking actual goddamn paint, Bob Ross style, your primary colors are!
When you use paint, your primary colors are red yellow and blue and don’t forget it.
NOW THAT CHANGES COMPLETELY WHEN YOU GO FUCKING DIGITAL.
THE DIGITAL PRIMARY COLORS ARE RED BLUE AND GREEN IF AND ONLY IF YOUR WORK IS GOING TO STAY DIGITAL, ON THE SCREEN, AND NEVER LEAVE THE SCREEN, AND OF COURSE IF YOUR WORK IS GOING TO BE PRINTED. ON A PRINTER. WITH INK. THEN. AND O N L Y T H E N.
ARE YOUR PRIMARY COLORS.
CYAN.
MAGENTA.
AND YELLOW.
So say it with me folks!
Red yellow and blue, are the primary colors for traditional pigment that’s mostly used in paints and shit. You use red yellow and blue when you’re painting traditionally, Bob Ross style.
Red blue and green is light, which is what you’re painting with when you pick up your tablet and go digital.
CMYK is ink, and ink only. You could use cyan, magenta, and yellow as your primary colors in paint if you wanted to be a complete dick, but they’re not your primary colors unless your work is going to be printed using. i n k. The only time they could be considered the primary colors in a traditional medium is if you’re using ink.
Good day.
Also thatswhiskytoyou’s color mixing is bullshit because THIS:
Is my icon. I painted this using RED. GREEN. AND BLUE. AS MY PRIMARY COLORS and they turned out fine. Of course, I used the finger smudge tool first and then the color mixing tool and then the blur tool, but hey what do I know.
Clearly using the blur tool only doesn’t cut it.
“Oh but Leo!” You say. “You used cyan and magenta in that color wheel!”
Well bitch guess what.
this is the digital color wheel. I’d say I mimicked that pretty well, don’t you think?
Oh and one other thing, notice how Blue and Yellow are directly opposite each other on this color wheel? That’s because we’re dealing with light, and with light, yellow and blue are complimentary colors.
Which is why when you mix them, it looks like this:
Which is a pretty neutral gray tone: They cancel each other out on the rgb color wheel when you mix them together.
BUT WITH PIGMENT THE PLACEMENT IS DIFFERENT
If you’ll notice, yellow and violet are now opposite each other, meaning they’re complimentary colors and if you mix them, they’ll make a neutral gray.
But if you mix yellow and blue, same colors as before, YOU GET THIS:
Now keep in mind that the person in the video uses a darker blue, so they get a darker green, but the point is that it doesn’t make that neutral gray.
Now what happens when we mix yellow and violet paint?
Ah yes, you get a bunch of muted colors the more evenly you mix them.
What happens when you mix yellow light and purple light?
I see, I see.
OH AND ONE MORE THING.
They didn’t teach you about red blue green and cmyk in pre-k because when most of us were in pre-k digital art was still in its early stages and what fucking seven year old knows how to use a printer.
GUESS WHO’S NOT FUCKING DONE YET:
The reason the primary colors for light are so dramatically different from the primary colors for paint and ink is because your eye only receives combinations of red light, blue light, and green light. Our eyes do not have a sensor (cone cell) for yellow light. So when we paint with light, red green and blue are our primary colors. Because of our eyes.
Furthermore, paint primary colors are colors that cannot be created by mixing other colors together. For paint, they are red yellow and blue, because you cannot mix orange and green to get yellow. Mixing orange and purple paint does not make red. And mixing green and purple paint does not make blue.
Mixing blue and green paints will make cyan. Mixing red and blue paints will make magenta.
That’s why cyan and magenta aren’t primary paint colors.
However, you can’t mix yellow and blue ink and get cyan. You can’t mix red and blue ink to get magenta.
And that’s why cyan and magenta are the primary ink colors.
Brighter and stronger paints are created through tints and shades, through a thorough understanding of color theory and a few quality paint recipes. Not by bullshit posts on tumblr designed to mislead you.

Hi, I tried contacting Admissions a couple of times, but they've been busy. I'm wondering if you guys know the deadline for Spring 2017 transfer applicants. Or what I should do for readmission, because I applied in high school.
We do not answer questions about the application process
“How’s school going?”
what did you all write your "why parsons" essay on? do you have recommendations for what topics cover? I'm really lost on this one
we don't answer questions about the admissions process
“How’s school going?”
i just scrolled past a photo & said out loud “your dynamic range is a piece of shit” so thanks for that i guess art school
male photographers really do kill me because they get a fucking nikon, canon or an instax mini and shoot light skin naked girls on a white or pastel backdrop like some discount terry richardsons and really think they killing shit like that’s amazing like the majority of male photographers, especially on this site, have all of two talents being musty and exploiting women and that’s a snapple fact
I'm in the BBA program at parsons, but I'm in my foundation year so I haven't taken any business classes. I'm struggling w not fitting in at Parsons (I'm not artsy, I miss straight guys, and I'm not liberal) but wanting to graduate from there. I'm worried that I'll spend 4 years roughing it in Parsons, & not be as successful as I think I'll be. I know you guys aren't in the business program, but do you know if going to Parsons for business is worth it, rather than a business school at like nyu?
i cannot tell you what school to go to. i know nothing about business or nyu, like literally not a thing.
& i also think that you’re still super new & it’s no surprise you haven’t found your community yet. find your community outside of the school. go hang out in sports bars or something, idk. or join one of the teams at the new school, we have soccer & basketball i think.
& i also think saying that you “miss straight people” is pretty fucked up. if being primarily surrounded by LGBTQIA+ people is a problem for you, you might want to figure out why. in the meantime, the new school & new york city probably isn’t a great place to foster your homophobia. try SUNY cortland (which came up when i googled the most homophobic universities lmao).edit: now i'm rereading this & it says straight guys, which if you're a straight chick is less hateful than it came across. but there are literally millions of straight dudes in new york. download tinder.
have you guys posted the portfolios you applied to parsons with? or do you know where i could find examples? everyone says "have a decent portfolio" but idk what that means? whats decent to me might not be for other people rip
I don’t even remember what was in my portfolio when I applied lol. basically just have a portfolio that youre proud of. it should have 9-12 pieces in it and it should all be work that you are willing to stand behind and defend.
honestly looking back my portfolio was 100% total ass, which i guess is how one should feel after over half a decade of art education
e.g., your work is probably shitty but don't worry it'll just get shitty in different ways

Alright thanks anyways ha.
you're welcome & good luck!
