My trip to New York, the things that I saw and did made me realise something...which i'm now taking as a positive.
For a while I had a negative attitude towards graphic design etc...and thought, heyyyy i'll just set up a cleaning business or something lol.
No. No I do not think that anymore...phew!
But! I need to make it, so that I enjoy what I'm doing.
I started writing a list of people I was going to email over summer, designers and also companies that I would potentially like to work for. When I got a few people on this list...I started to put together a .pdf that I could send out.
Specifically when it came to the companies I aspire to do work for...I was looking at the work I have produced and thought 'Well, I barely have anything that I feel happy with thats appropriate to send to them?'
The whole point of me doing this degree is so that I can have a job that I Love in the future
SO! My plan...I need to draw more.
I need to draw things I want to draw, to an extent developing my own style but also so I can have more things to show, more than just college briefs.
I need my work to reflect me more, rather than saying 'This is what I've done but I'm gonna work differently in the future.'
I want to be an illustrator.
I want to illustrate words...
I love words!
I want to draw people.
Make people laugh.
I want to enjoy what I'm doing rather than 'do it to get a degree'.
I want to be good at it.
Rant over.
