Las Vegas tale recalls casino trades and art notes
A Las Vegas report covers a private casino training school offering 4 to 5 week courses in 21 and roulette for $100 and 6 to 8 weeks in craps for $135 with diploma cards issued though no job guarantees. It notes student choices favor blackjack for prestige but demand lies in craps and mentions current enrollment and a single teacher. The piece shifts to Laguna Beach art class teaching painting principles from Schnabel, stressing risk, interpretation, and learning from disagreement to grow as an artist.
