What are your creative/artistic pursuits?

Re: What are your creative/artistic pursuits?

I have been a full time commercial artist for few decades now. At 13 I already knew the path I was going to fallow. In order to survive and thrive in this field you have to keep the focus on the commercial needs and adapt accordingly ... almost every 5 to 10 years. There is no resting period. You will be easily rejected outcast if you do not adapt to the latest trends, stylings, softwares, equipments. I have my own commercial studio 50% my work is in the studio the rest in the field traveling all over the US capturing architectural photography with extensive photoshop embellishments.... I love what I do. Postings on this forum are my mental brakes from work.

That is really cool, I had no idea that you also pursued your passion in your career. So you don't actually come up with the commercials right, you just try to make them more appealing or striking for the audience?

It's a mix batch. My approach is very unorthodox. I do come up with most of my creative concepts... every once a while I do get directions from middle "creative" annoyance that the client dictates to have. I don't mind as long they pay.

I work for a production company who specialize in making commercials.

I like drawing and making collages - but I only do that from time to time.

Re: What are your creative/artistic pursuits?

collages are cool, I'll post one of mine that I made in summer camp 2 years ago (I'm a camp counselor), you should post some of yours too
