What kind of jobs are there for people who go to college for art?
Keira Rose asked:
I’m in my first year of high school and thinking about my future job. I had always thought that I would take four years of art and then go to college for art, but now I’m not so sure. I mean, I don’t want to be a starving artist or anything. People always told me to do what I love for a job, but I do like money, and I’m no Picasso. So what sorts of jobs are there for “art people”?

freelance, design, graphic designs a big one, website design, teaching it of course matters what your doing with your art-i’m in the same boat though this is my first year of college and i’ kind of spread out..i major in photography but drawing/pianting/graphic design and music so yup im an artfag. Rather do something i know i love though, thats just me, but then again i’m working minimum wage. Gooo artfags. Sugar Wookie

Making money is more important than “doing what you love” in this economy. If you are doing what you love but are poor and can’t support the ones you love you are going to be very unhappy. Unfortunately art is an area that is not very in demand and most art programs at schools are being cut due to budget restrictions. There is very little use for art in terms of attaining sufficient employment, you may want to consider something more likely to land you a good-paying job. You can always do art on the side. Sophia
