Art is for people who notice things. Light on a wall, a weird color combo in a sunset, the way a poster pulls your eye across the page. As an art major, you’ll make a lot of work, talk about it a lot, and slowly figure out what you’re actually trying to say visually. You’ll build skills, but you’ll also build taste, which is the underrated superpower.
What studying art is like
Most of your week revolves around studio classes. You’ll draw, paint, build, edit, revise, and sometimes restart. Critiques are a big deal. You put your work up, everyone looks, and you get feedback that helps you see what’s working and what’s not. It can be awkward at first, but it’s how you level up fast.
What you’ll learn
Common classes
Skills you’ll build
What you can do with this major
A lot of art grads split into two lanes: making their own work, or using their art skills in creative industries.
Careers and job outlook
The “resume” for art is your portfolio. People want to see what you make, how consistent you are, and whether you can finish projects. Internships, freelance gigs, student shows, and even one solid passion project can do a ton of heavy lifting.
How to choose a program
FAQs
Is an art major the same as graphic design?
No. Art is more exploration and studio practice. Graphic design is communication for an audience, often for clients or brands.
Do I need to be amazing at drawing already?
Not at all. You need consistency. People improve fast when they work regularly and get feedback.
What should I do outside class?
Make work, document it well, and post or share it somewhere. Apply for student shows. Take small gigs. Build a portfolio you can explain.
If you want, drop the vibe you’re aiming for (more playful, more serious, more “older sibling advice,” more artsy), and I’ll rewrite the landing page to match it.
