Actually art academies, both now and then, don't care that much about your ability to produce beautiful and well-crafted paintings. It's more about the ideas behind it and thinking out of the box. If you want to actually learn to draw and paint with great quality craftsmanship, learn to be a painter/decorator or study design or illustration, NOT art.

I have seen them and they're not bad. But my point is the Vienna academy had a different opinion.
