The idea of becoming a freelance illustrator isn't something that I can see myself doing. I can imagine picking up a few jobs here and there if they are of interest to me as reasons to be creating artwork and pushing myself after university but I imagine myself having a secure job.
I think that I am someone who needs stability and the whole eb and flows of work is something my stress levels just could not cope with.
I need structure and organisation in my life. Because of this I feel that I am very organised and can achieve a lot per day if I put my mind to it as I love cramming as many different things as I can into my weeks. This means that I definitely will be able to manage my music and dance passions along side mini visual projects and a job I hope.
What I possibly will struggle with will be the seeming professional when dealing with perhaps smaller or work for friends and still asking for money.
The management of money is definitely something which worries me (which is still not a good concept to me as I struggle massively with numbers - dyslexia).
The lack of support from people within the creative industry is going to be a big shock when we all graduate. My family are definitely not in the creative industry they will struggle with advice when dealing with professional problems and questions - definitely need to sign up to the AOI!
