So... College starts again tomorrow :noes: Don’t know how active I’m going to be on DA because of this so sorry if I take long to respond to anything. This first week hopefully won’t be to busy, which might give me time to upload some of the drawing work we did last module and then there’s always the chance of some re-uploads...

See ya guys when I see ya!!

Wow, that's rather epic! What type of artwork do you do for the gallery, i.e. digital, traditional, canvas, illustrations, etc?

Wow, ImagineFX that will be pretty fantastic! Be sure to let me know how that goes!!

Well, if you don't mind me asking, what do you want to become/do? These days the terms artist/designer/illustrator, carry so many different descriptions and interpretations. People tend to hear 'artist' then shut down, thinking of it the traditional sense only as a hobby. I find that very few people has made the mindshift that art is now also a paying occupation with many different paths that can be followed... Don't know if this is the case with your parents though :shrug:

for the gallery im doing illustrations and portraits of movies, music icons, etc.

for a career, i wanna be a concept artist/ illustrator for videogames...and yea, my parents dont want me to because i have a natural talent with trigonometry and calculus as well....they think i can make a better living with that than with art...but art is more fun to me

Sorry for the late reply, we were helping my grandmother move - man, what a mission that was :faint:

Cool! Which I guess the gallery then displays so that people might buy your works - Nevermind (Of course they do, what else would a gallery do :ohmygod: )

I see. Yeah, go can't really force yourself to do something you don't really want to do, well, you can, but the general agreement is that that will make you unhappy.
I suppose if you really wanted to get them off your back, you could try to get estimated quotes from jobs from both aspects (both art and maths) were art will hopefully show more promising financial results. All you really need to do I suppose is show your parents that you can make a living from illustrating...

Eh, sorry, I feel like I'm rambling, and this isn't even really any of my business...

but yea, now that im makin money off of my art, i would think my parents view on it was different, but nope

Sigh, yeah, I suppose people are not likely to change their opinions so quickly... Well, here's to hoping that they will come around eventually :fingerscrossed:

A bit off topic though, here's a rather interesting/entertaining read [link] about some of the events in the life of an artist here on DA

I'll be rooting for ya :D
