Re: What is your day job?
I am blessed to be living a reclusive life that I prefer and have managed to get buy making a few websites here and there. My main job is creating graphics for my own site which I sell. It can be quite stressful at times when the site is quiet and I do not have any other work. It is just as stressful making other websites and having to draw for my own site at the same time, my site is a hungry monster and I need to keep my members happy with new stock. My office is my bedroom, lounge, kitchen all in one, and I usually am always listening to electronica type music (Buddha Bars etc).
It has taken a year for my site to really get going, so far I have had over 70 000 unique hits to my site this year, wish I had as many sales, it is a tight market.
I sketch images on paper, re-draw them in Xara and shade them in Paint Shop Pro. I like watercolor brushes and find it difficult to get a watercolor effect in Xara. I live in South Africa on the east coast and I am a vegetarian.
Well that is more than just about my day job, but now you know a little more about me than you anticipated.
