Which is better for me a digital artist or an interior designer?
I like to draw a lot and I decided that it would be better for me if I were to take a career where I can paint or just draw. I understand that if I am an interior designer I won't be painting all the time, but I do find it enjoyable to make others happy; If I were to redesign their home or workspace to the way they would like it, that would be quite fun to turn something old and boring into something they enjoy what they see! As a digital artist, I can draw a lot, do commissions, and just draw! It sounds like a dream to me! Making art for people, or for video games. It just sounds like so much fun!!

Hello, Alexandra,
This is an interesting question, as most of us want someone to tell us what to do. But that is not what others can do for us. Others can stand for us with our decisions, but they cannot choose what is best for us. Only you know what is best for you.
So, if you are between two ideas and are not sure, there are some things you can do to find out.
Using meditation/prayer, you can go inside yourself and ask yourself what you truly desire to do.
How I use this method is:
I set up a quiet space for myself with a notepad, music with no words, and a candle.
I set a timer for 5 minutes (this will seem so long if you don't usually meditate, but as you get used to this, you will be able to sit longer)
I sit in criss-cross leg position on a pillow.
I shut my eyes and start to breathe.
Then I ask myself questions like:
- Who am I?
- What do I love?
- What did I love to do when I was 5?
- What books do I love to read?
- What movies do I love to watch and rewatch?
-What do people say I am good at?
- Why do people come to me?
- What is my passion?
- What would I enjoy doing for many hours a day?
You come up with your own questions, but these might give you a good start. Then ask each one and listen to your answers. Remember the answers, no matter how silly or odd they may seem at the time. When your 5 minutes are up, write down all you remember.
Do this a few times, and you will start to see a pattern in your answers, and you will get to know yourself better.
You might even come up with a way to blend these ideas you have - drawing, art, and decorating all have things in common. What could you do to enjoy all of them?
You are right where you should be - getting curious about yourself and a life you can make your own.
Keep questioning.
You will find your way,
Sincerely, Angie
