    i graduated from Architecture 2 years ago, I was an active artist during my student days and i earned a good amount of money and follows with my art . however after graduating I was unsure what to do, so like everyone I got into an architecture job rat race. and it felt like hell for me, low pay, over time almost everday ,no overtime free,low salary( I used to earn 2x more as a student that I earn by doing a proper job). I lost all my art clients and followers. I was severely depressed . last month I suddenly snapped and quit as this isn't letting me any time to continue my art. I quit Architecture to pursue art. Everyone is telling me this is a terrible decision but i am so traumaized by architecture I never wanna go back again. I'm slowly trying to restart my art career but having difficult to do so as 1 year of architecture job kinda killed the artist in me. But I am trying to revive again. i was severly depressed when this video came to me, Your video acted as a therapy for me. Now I am feeling hopeful again that I can restart my art career .Really thank you for this video. Don't know what the future holds but I want to take the leap of faith to becoming a full time artist ( Even though dangers of AI taking over Artist's jobs is looming ever closely )

      Hey you're not alone! I worked for 1 yr in the interior design industry now im shifting to an art career. I got traumatized as well in the industry and a lot of ppl think my idea is terrible. Im currently jobless and slowly building my art portfolio and gain again recognition online. Im also Planning to enroll in a state university to get a finearts certificate to persue my dreams to becoming an artist! :3

    I got laid off 2 months ago. I also got laid off during the pandemic. And I’m determined to transition out of architecture this time. Best of luck to you!

      Hi there. I graduated in both dips of the double dip recession in 2008. It was brutal. I have a folder of 100s of rejections (back then you applied with physical cvs!) It all worked out for me. And it will work out for you too. Remember, careers are a marathon, not a sprint. You got this. ❤️

    Do you have any tips on how to "save"? but also having to spend money to create

    • @HANNABENIHOUD
      @HANNABENIHOUD  2 роки тому

      Great question. It depends on what your practice is. But I would make a budget and work within your means. Don't spend on high end materials if you can't afford them. A lot of my early work was done with materials from pound land. This constraint often encourages creativity. Another example is with this channel I am doing everything on my phone until I can justify spending money on it. :) You don't need fancy stuff to make good work imo
