.you don't have to choses just one path

.you don't have to major in illustration

.you need a port folio with all the things that interested you

. you need your own style but its ok to take inspiration from other artist who interest you

specific: My goal is to improve my speed in drawing and getting better at art digitally because I'm going to be honest its a lot harder for me then traditional.

Measurable: I am going to find a middle ground by practicing digital art and attempting to draw faster in traditional art.

achievable: the way to achieve my goal is to proactive on my phone or tablet and test out how fast I can draw both traditional and digitally it is achievable because we constantly need our phones and paper is cheep and accessible.

relevant: I believe it is relevant in the job because depending on the customer they could want it traditionally or digitally an illustrator could use many methods or materials' in there work so why cant I so the same? its also just good to be flexible.

time managements: I will probably be an illustrator after collage and I will practice digital art for about three weeks hopefully.

specific: my goal is to improve my communication.

measurable: I'm going to talk to my friends more and try to communicate better

achievable: the way to achieve this is either through text on my phone or actually seeing them

relevant: it is relevant for the job because if I don't communicate with the customer or employee's how will I know what they want? or hoe to work together in a group project you cant work on somethings if your not passionate about it. that's like bread without flower, tasteless.

time management : since I'm back in collage and luckily one of my friends goes to this collage I'm going to talk to her at lunch unless she's not in in that case the mission is a fail.

i have practiced and learned a lot over the years for example I've practice famous artist way of drawing i went out of my comfort zone constantly using different materials and I've planned and completed some of the challenge's that faced me

I've even started my own projects and watched videos on how to improve such as my comic/manga/graphic novel the little mer-prince. To be honest I don't know where to class my work because my art style has a bite of everything so l don't know where to place it so ill just say manga for now but I've been working with real manga/ professional comic pens form amazon and some ink not ink in a tub or inside a regular pen no a full glass mini jar-ish kind ink that i both love and hate its really messy but so fun

I've been drawing in my sketch book that miss give me i took her advice and tried to draw different things overall art is fun and learning is cool in art p.s don't use glitter its so messy
