Meet the Arts Students

From his humble beginnings in the graphite mines of Letchworth, Les Coleman went on to publish his savage critique of the sinister cult of vegetarianism Tofu Walk With Me. After years of research exploring the darker side of the human psyche he has returned with this current volume in which he proves conclusively that viridian, if deftly applied, need no longer be a source of embarrassment.

With unfaltering good humour, even a kind of grace, Les Coleman depicts the hapless victims of our failing art education system.

Everyone laughed at me when I called the teacher ‘Sir’, instead of ‘Les’.

I look forward to its inevitable sequel, Meet the Art Professors.

Anyone who has been an art student in the last twenty years will recognise this wickedly accurate file of posers, tossers, blaggers and nerds as the other people in their class.

I see myself in all of these self-portraits.

I wish I were a first year art-student!!
