![]() talent on another level ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Member Posts: 746 Joined: Oct 2006 Member No: 475,735 |
Have you ever been through a phase where you weren't satisfied with your progression as an artist and you feel that your not growing like you want to? Well I am going through that and it's frustrating and depressing how I can't seem to come up with a good idea and when I do it dosen't turn out the way I want to and I get discouraged. I know the advice everyone gives, and that's to practice, practice, practice, but I can't even do that without quitting from being so pissed off!
How do you think I should approach this because sometimes I feel like giving up and that is not an option? |

Sometimes some of things my parents say just make me feel that i want to give up. They will always say you did great but you could have done this more. Sometimes i feel the no matter what i do it doesnt matter.
My parents are doctors and for a while i know they were a bit stunned when i said i wanted to pursue a career in graphic design. They managed to say that i wouldn't find a job easily and stuff like that. Though now its gotten better and my parents have accepted that fact more. Still i occasionally have problems still in the first paragraph area |

Yeah, don't give up. Just write down any ideas you get and look through different resources like websites, magazines, and etc. Every designer will always have a "Designer's Block". You also just need to relax and let loose. You'll eventually get something if you don't try too hard. Sometimes I get my ideas from things I see outside or things I hear. I even got a few ideas from things that were going on in my community and social life. Good luck.
