CUSTOM WOOD WORK FURNITURE
Posted on Sunday, July 18th, 2010 at 1:18 pm

What should i do in life?!?!?
Im in grade 12 and next year im taking a year off to work. I have two descisions that im good at and would enjoy doing as a career but only one with a well paid full time offer.. Its either wood working and building custom furniture and stuff like that or Graphic designs.. For graphics i have a good offer with a friend of mine who thinks im awesome at it, He works with les strouds productions (survivor man the T.V. show) and I need to make a descision soon.. here are two photoshop things as an example.. the first one i through together in like 25 min and the second took like 4 hrs in total.

thanks for your input and sorry i dont have any pictures of stuff i made out of wood.. i made my desk and bed frame and both look awesome lol if that helps.
the thing about making these choices is if you will be able to make a living and pay back student loans. there are graphic designers left and right theses days, and as technology gets more user friendly everyone things they can make logo etc. I mean just look at youtube. everyone is a film maker now a days, and most aren’t great. I would tell you to go with furniture design. go to art school where you can do this. it will be a job more in demand as well as something you can make good money at. the other thing is if the market dive bombs again you have a back up with wood working where graphic design you really don’t.
