Why I Chose To Be A Graphic Designer by Nobody: 3:37am On Jun 28, 2022 |
Oh, I still remember my childhood days, I loved drawing and painting! I would take a pencil and draw any image that caught my attention. I drew from books and magazines but mostly school textbooks because they had colourful pictures. I also painted. I started with using water colour to paint then I started using poster colour, at some point I wanted to be an artist! Yeah. I also thank God for the kind of parents I have, while other children were dreaming of being doctors and lawyers, they had this kid who was so enthusiastic about drawing, painting and design. Of course I was such a type of kid. I started doodling long before I discovered that it was an art and a skill that people engaged in professionally. As time went on, I grew! Yes I did. I grew up and discovered somethings which I'm about to share with You. • I discovered that "manual" artists were not being rewarded so much. By "manual" artists I mean people who use their hands to draw and paint. The people who made money from the skill were mostly those very very good at it and I felt the skill wasn't in high demand • Hand drawing and hand painting were gradually fading away due to technology. Yeah one day I asked myself, what's the point of stressing myself drawing and painting when an app can do the same for me? I knew I had the passion but the world had moved past that, I didn't want to be left behind so one day I asked myself, why don't I venture into digital design? Wow! Nice idea, I finally found a way to maintain relevance in my generation. My journey of how I became a smartphone graphics designer is a story for another day. But before I conclude this post I'll love to let you know some of the things I enjoy about being a smartphone graphics designer and then I'll show you some samples of my work. • Graphic Design gives me a platform to express creativity and ingenuity. • Graphic Design opens my mind up to several ways something can be done, thereby boosting my critical thinking ability. • Designing gives me an opportunity to convey messages, communicate effectively and disseminate information. • Designing often boosts my creativity. • Designing keeps me meaningfully BUSY, Yeah, as a young person there are different stuff that could take your time but won't profit you anything designing is one of those [mthings that you could keep you positively engaged. • I admire arts and design. When I stumble upon some great piece of art, I could spend long hours just admiring it and I'm happy to be a designer I could go on and on! These are the very reasons I chose to be a graphic designer and I don't regret it. |
