What I learned as a design student
When I was a student at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, one of the things I appreciated was that the instructors were required to also be working professionally in their chosen fields of design.
I felt this added credibility to what the instructors taught. As a student, you could be assured that the instructors' teachings were relevant to current design trends and met realistic design constraints & capabilities.
I try and do the same with my own business & teachings by designing for companies in the real world.
As some of you know, in addition to running TheVectorLab and teaching Graphic Design Workshops, I also design t-shirts and prints for the surf apparel industry.
I recently updated the blog with some graphic designs from my personal portfolio. I hope you enjoy!
