> Update: Finished the chem quest (poor teachers...) The only thing I found in the past using my lighter was an old shirt in the tree. Artist-to-be has long hair and sunglasses - not sure what else must be done with him. Got Desai's shoes. Please help!

Try all your items on the artist-in-progress. Once he has the BO and facial hair and you've taken a good look at him, you'll send him off to the art room.
