Sooo, I've been doin a lot of thinkin (and workin) lately. There will be more uploads of course in the future, but that's after I get everything finished and situated (workin on a coupla projects right now). Right now, things are goin really smoothly, but I often ask myself how long this'll last. Every great artist suffers a great fail before they really get the ball goin, so is this going to be the faceplant I'm trying so hard to avoid? I'm tryn not to let that thought consume me and hinder my performance, but I figure as long as I work as hard as I can I'll learn as much as I can. Anyway, I've been having a hard time deciding what to focus my art towards. I was convinced for the longest time ever that I wanted to be a video game designer, then a video game artist, then concept artist....then comic book artist...the list goes on. Art is amazing for the simple fact that it can be applied to soooo many things, but I can't do everything all the time. I've been doing a good job, but what will I be the most well known for? So far, its been graphic design, but I don't want that to be the only jobs I'm getting. I love character design art, whether its for comics, video games, or whatever. I still love portrait painting and drawing. What I WANT to do is promote myself as a graphic designer and traditional artist. I'll be doing some more clean ups in my gallery to organize it a little bit, and get rid of ALL of my bad pieces. I had them in there to show my struggles, but I'm sure we all know what struggles are like. But what do you guys think? Where should I focus my efforts? Should I continue being a jack of all trades? Opinions matter, so that's why I ask ^_^

i think that you should do what you want to do. generally speaking, that then produces your best work and will look best for your gallery :]

and don't forget to focus on your studies XD
