From Paint to Graphic Design

Sep 15, 2022 | This and That

When I was little, kids my age were interested in board games, coloring books, or dolls. While I loved my Barbies, one of my favorite pastimes was drawing in Paint on my older brother’s computer.

I would play with text and colors and attempt to draw out objects from around the house. Playing with that program was endless hours of fun for me. What was one childhood activity that hinted at what you were going to choose for your career path?
