Since I was a wee lad I loved art and I was always quite good at it. My teachers all said I was gifted and I received several recognitions and awards in highschool for my paintings, drawings, etc. but I never even heard of graphic design or knew how to use a computer. At the age of 23 I went to an Art School and received a BFA in graphic design (thinking this would be the practical degree). I struggled with completing this degree and found that most of my classmates were much better at graphic design than I am. I never quite got it. I always seemed to do work that was fine artsy or political. When I graduated I was left with a portfolio that I found to be disappointing. I was never very proud of my work and lost confidence in myself as an artist. Can you loose your talents? Can some one be bad at graphic design but great at fine art? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Absolutely. The two are tied by a creative side, but aren't anything at all the same. |
