I'm very close to switching my major from visual communication to illustration.
What scares me the most is that I don't think I'm that great of an artist. But...I would grow, I would get better, I would learn more, and I would really be doing what I love.
I mean...think about it. What do I do? I draw. I love to doodle. I love using ink and marker and the computer to paint and CG. I've had interests in painting and have enjoyed doing it, I just never had many opportunities to do it. I love getting ideas and executing them. I love imagery more than text.
I don't think I'm meant to manipulate psychology, but rather tug at the heartstrings and bring amazement.
But whatever happens...at the end of the day, I am meant to make art.
