アートの友達が欲しいんです。あたしはいつも一人で絵を描いた。たくさん人は一緒に描くRL友達がいると思います。でもあたしは誰もいないんです。やああ、やっぱり寂しいですね。あたしはインターネトでアートの友達がいるはわかっている。でも実際は。。。o(´^`)o ウー

Haha I'm writing jibberish Japanese. Teresa feel free to help correct me XD;; (since I haven’t gone far with the grammar like with "ん" or "と"…) It's just a thought that I've been always thinking.... orz

I'm thinking about minoring in Graphic Design...or learning Webdesigning since it seems like I do a lot with that and get paid for it.....yet have no real training XD;;

*goes back to work on Fanime stuff*

hahah i totally feel the same way, but that's because i never really took an interest in arting until mid college, and by then, i already made all my friends (who were non arting types) and so i just settled with deviantart =p

i always wish i had a friend to draw, and learn how to do things artwise, with too....it seems like it'd be so much fun. but now i'm stuck with a job =(

on the note about graphic design. my roommate says getting a degree would make it easier initially for you to beat other candidates who don't have a degree for good design firms and studios, but as time goes on, a GD degree won't help you win over someone's experience or portfolio. He's a designer for deutsch with only an associates in GD (which is not considered much i guess?) from a comm college and now he's in one of the top advertising agencies (from what i heard)...

also, a GD degree would help you get places better tpop, half of whose GDs don't have degrees in design hahaha....uh....i am sad.

Hehe I've stuck with friends ever since elementart/middle school but not because they were artists but just fun to hang out with XD;; Yes deviantart is a nice place to meet other artists but is unlikely to ever meet them in person or ever draw together with. *sigh* Lucky peeps who have RL artists pals.

Haha. Thanks for the GD tips :3 I just want to train myself to get better more consistently haha since I'm learning them off and on on my own XD;;

Wait...did Fawn even graduate with any design course experience D: (like took any classes in it or are you self taught?).

haha no i never took any design or art classes...it's pretty sad. My dad is a GD and when we used his computer, it was all mac and all adobe/quark so i had "training" all through middle school and high school without knowing =p but i'm the one with the crappy job, so my story i more like the "what can go wrong" scenario....but yeah in the arts, there's always a lot more emphasis on your portfolio than your education~
