I understand this one. Lust to want more attention, more fame. I think when that happens you lost all the passion.
This was easy to understand and in 6 words you made me feel lots of emotion.

Funny. I can see the possibility. LOL
Whether the judges of the 6 word agree is something else again.
8/8

ahh, the angst and libido driven artist.   the greatest of tropes for the writer.  consider “slayed” instead of killed.  slayed would blend aliterative elements from the sssss in school and lust, with the “el” sound from love and lust as well.

cheers.

The content was sparse but flowed smoothly. A shoe in for the category. In its brevity, it says much about life as an artist.

We seem to leave art school because of a relationship with the model, the artist next to us, or the teacher/professor.

We really don’t fall in love with them: either we fall in lust with their flesh, their drawings or their teachings.

Great line.

Hey Stranger,

A punctuation would have made this much better, like a comma after ‘love’.

Pretty funny and good though.

I love it! It’s very theatrical, and paints a great picture. There is a whole story behind those 6 words. It reminds me of someone who once was an amazing artist and the passion of love forever ruined him. [kind of a romaticist theory there :)]

One of my favs!

This is probably one of my most favorite of these six word memoirs I’ve seen yet. Love being killed by lust puts such a powerful image in my head. The art school adds a little bit of young, creative edge to it – good job with this!!

I feel a high sense of urgency. The repeated trochee is much appreciated and the emphasis on “lust” lingers well. I also love the idea of “love killed by lust” and how this can really affect you as an artist in art school. Because of the hard-hitting mono-syllabic word choice, I sense some sort of urgency and maybe even a warning passed down to future art students.

The words are simple and yet make a brilliant six-word memoir. It wasn’t definitely what I expected!
