Today, I found out that my art project, the one I've been working on for the last two weeks and the first piece I felt really comfortable about turning in, was stolen out of the art cupboard. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was my first big time art show. To celebrate I went out to lunch with some people whose work was also there. When we got back, police were everywhere. Someone had broken in and stolen all of the art. All except mine. Even burglars don't want my art. FML
Today, I came home and found my desk devoid of all paper. Turned out my mom dropped by and wanted to surprise me by cleaning up my work area. She threw away over 7 months worth of irreplaceable original sketches, notes and storylines, thinking they were worthless. My job is a full-time artist. FML
Today, I was finishing up my art project that was due the next day. I was really tired and fell asleep on my table. Three hours later, I woke up to find my project torn to bits. I went out and saw my cat vomiting out feathers and other materials I used for my project. FML
Today, one of my paintings was accepted into a local art gallery. It would've been a dream come true, had my "best friend" not submitted it under her own name and taken all the credit. FML
Today, I had given up on finding my makeup bag with cell phone and iPod my mom had bought for me recently. So I went to art to join the group of girls with whom I share the back art studio of my school. One of them was talking about how she'd ripped off some bitch's stuff, and she held up my bag. FML
Today, after I got home from school I went to my room to find the maid had cleaned it, also to find a bag labeled "trash" it was all the sketches and paintings I had done in art class, which is my major plan for college. FML
Today, my apartment got robbed. My 'book-in-progress' should keep them company. FML
Today, I was looking through an old box of personal artwork when I realised the entire box was damp. This was all my own art from the past 3 years, smudged and smelling of cat urine. I was supposed to showcase some of it in a competition winning gallery this month. FML
Today, artwork that I had been working on for months was destroyed, leaving me almost in tears. The culprit? A lonely pigeon who'd got into the room and shat all over it. FML
Today, I turned in my best painting yet for a scholarship competition. For once in my life, I was actually proud of a piece I'd done. I ended up losing the scholarship to some dickface who'd basically just glued together some crap from the dollar store and called it conceptual art. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Kind of a compliment, I guess? Someone thought it was nice enough that they wanted it!

I know how you feel that happened to me too. it was a painting that was worth 600 pts. and I know everyone keeps saying to remake it. but I know for a fact that's harder said then done. there is no way to even closely repaint another one to resemble the last one. sorry about that man.

like a lot of people said, at least someone actually liked it. :/ that still sucks though. I'd submitted a colored pencil drawing to an art show at our mall that to this day was the best I've ever done, and when I got it back I found that someone had scribbled on it. :( people are jerks.

Serves you right for going to art school. This was obviously fate trying to tell you to go out and get a REAL degree :)

Clearly you're not an artist. It's hard work and that's extremely disrespectful.

Apparently someone else felt comfortable about turning it in as well! FYL

That is TERRIBLE. I'm sorry. Geez. All the people saying remake it or "at least they liked it" really dont know what theyre saying, because that... that's just so terrible. Take good pictures before turning ANYTHING in from this point on.

It must have been good for someone to steal it.
