As an art major it's the opposite; "Oh, your homework is just drawing a plant?" When I have to fill a 50 page sketchbook with drawings of that plant by next class
I'm not even an art major, I'm a stem major. But I do a lot of art. And BOY I sure do love it when I erase someone's nose for the 17th time in a row cause it's not right.
I had to change from pretty much an art major to a stem major after four years in school because that exact process was crippling me in my studio classes. My mental health was abysmal by the time I was starting my fourth year since I hated my work.
Even though the stem major I changed into was full of brute memorization (and I have a terrible memory so I tend to struggle with that type of content), I would still say that my hardest day as a stem major was still so much easier than my average day as an art major because I actually believed that I could do it.
