Why Graphic Designers Need a Website/Portfolio!

Hello again everyone. Today I have a few more videos from Roberto Blake about graphic designers creating their own website to show off your portfolio and contact information so that you get noticed by employers.
This is very important for getting jobs or future jobs if you are already employed. My advice do the website yourself even if it is through websites like weebly or wiz.

Here are some of the videos (courtesy of youtube):







      

                    Well that's it for now. Hope you guys enjoy my blog and I'll see you guys next time.

Self Motivation and Inspiration

Hello again everyone. Sorry I have neglected my blog once again and you have my deepest apologies. Anyway, I have another video from Roberto Blake talking about self motivation and being happy.


What he says is so true because some days you just don't feel like creating graphic design art like you want to in your free time; mainly because you have to have a job that pays the bills or something comes up to interrupt  you starting or continuing a project. Some days you just need to create time for graphic design, photography, or any type of art because if you don't you may lose some of your skills as an artist. So even if your tired please try and dig deep so that you can create beautiful and inspiring works of art. Although I do encourage the occasional nap so that you don't get to stressed out and tired. I hope this helped any artist out there. It sure helped me with the stuff that I am dealing with right now in my life.



Well that's it for now and please give me ideas about what you want to see on both of my blogs. See you guys next time.
