the first week at art school! 🌻 *risd freshman year*

The first week in my life at RISD was a stressful experience, with art supplies to buy, bullet journals to set up, names to learn and professors to meet. RISD is treating me well though! I am all settled now with finals week coming up, though still learning new things about the campus every day…
In this video, I adjust to being in America for the first time, having moved my whole life abroad from the UK to go to art school. I was STILL getting over jetlag so was extremely tired all the time plus was socially drained by having so many new people to meet so my priorities weren’t really on video making but am really happy with the story that this vlog tells - from easing in to studio work to the instant connection I formed with my new roommate.
It seems truly ages ago that I submitted my accepted early decision RISD portfolio - almost another lifetime ago - but I am definitely looking forward to going home when the semester ends 😊
Posts have been slow on my channel because of the amount of studio work I’ve been getting & have been feeling a lil burnt out as we approach the end of the term so be sure to check out my Patreon for more regular updates: / buzzymartin
Hope you are all doing well! If you’ve read this far let me know in the comments what you’ve done that has inspired & uplifted you this week.
See you soon xx
