Studio Story Time.

Story #1: "& he went mad"
During our first studio project here, we were under a lot of pressure to complete the first project in only one week. So much pressure that one kid actually cracked! Just nights before our presentations, he started drawing all over the facade of his group's building model. Later that night, he was admitted into a psychiatric clinic, where he stayed for 3 days.
Story #2: "filthy"
For our second project, no one wanted to go to the art supply store to buy more material for their models (pricey) and someone discovered a dumpster full of cardboard in an alley near our studios. Sunday morning, Rachel went out to the dumpster to get some cardboard, but discovered that all of the big pieces were in the bottom. So she climbed right in there, crazy hair and all, to get to them. Meanwhile, an old Danish lady is taking a stroll through the alley and sees Rachel rummaging around in a dumpster. The lady began yelling at her in Danish and, not understanding, Rachel began apologizing in English. To this, the woman shakes her finger and shouts "You are filthy!"
