I started aged 12.
Graduated, got some great feedback for my final project which I think I needed because I felt like I'd been dragged through the shit a bit by my tutor. My university then chose one of my designs to represent the school of Art and Design on their christmas card which was a really big deal for me because I knew a lot of people who I thought it should have been.
Got a proper design job in the middle of a recession, which means I actually now draw pictures for a living. I also found out that if it hadn't have been for an artist who lived down the street I wouldn't have been allowed to go and do an art foundation course and wouldn't be where I am now. So thankyou for that.
But the last decade involved a whole load of work.
Got my first magazine cover (that I designed) and had designs produced by Topman. Ended the decade by Tesco putting in a 13,000 order for my designs too. Pretty amazing considering I got a D in Art at A-level (but to be fair to them I was a bit of a nightmare student). Here's to the next decade ey? Maybe I'll have my own company or something who knows?
