Hey all you art majors!?

Question

why you chose art for your major, how is it and what kinda careers can you do with art?

Answer 1

1. I started drawing Star Wars and Spider-Man figure at age 10...I did very well because my drawings were very, very detailed and sharp.  

2. I studied Art in high school from 1985 -1988. In this time, I learned techniques like Pointilism, Perspective, Rendering, Shading, using Cutting knives like Bullhead points and also Pastel too.

3. I also took a Photogprahy Class where I learned how to make home made Silk Screen T-shirts from scratch.

We had to draw all our own "Positives" and use them as Blue Prints for the T-shirts. "Positives" are the opposite of "Negatives" in Photography.  You use "Negatives" to reproduce or dupilcate more copies from the Original.

This was cool too..

4. In 2003 and 2005. I took some free R.O.P. Graphic Design classes to learn Basic Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and CorelDraw too. This is where I started creating all my own CD covers from too.

5. Art is all about being creative & innovative....no matter what methods you use.  Some use music, some use Art, some use film, some use words like Writers.  

6. You can be a Graphic Designer, an Artist ( like music),

a Painter, a Film Maker, a Videographer, a Cartoon Artist,

an Interior Designer, a Silk Screener,  an Architect, an Advertising Executive, a Writer or whatever else you want to be using your career from Art.

7. Good luck
