Poster? Not This Time...

Hello everyone! :)

Thank you for stopping by. 

So yes I know most of you expect me to post posters I have recently made but 

this time, I am reaching out to guys to let out my anger and annoyance. And share my feelings with you

I truly enjoy, making posters. Graphic designing is my passion! 

I have started from nothing and ended up with improvements as you guys have mentioned. 

I know I still have a long way to go, and I want to continue the journey with you guys. 

When I get a chance to make posters for people, I really enjoy it. 

I even sometimes leave my personal work to get my requests done. 

But from all of that I hate being rushed. 

I understand the person who is requesting wants their poster done right away, but that is not how things work. 


Why I HATE being rushed: 

1. I have no creativity when I am rushed. 

2. I am not inspired to make the poster. 

3. It makes me give up on making posters. 

 

I know I am still not as good as many or most of the graphic designers on this site, and yes 

many can finish requests fast, but I am still learning and try my best to get things done, 

but being a college student, working a part-time job and taking care of my family since my father is ill

there is a lot on my hand and all I can do is balance out all my work, which requires me 

to put my requests to the side. 

I have had people wait so patiently for their request to be done and in the end, they get the best results. 

If I have promised to make you a poster I will do it. But we have to compromise. 

I do not have a clean plate in front of me. 

With all the stress I have to carry, sometimes my creativity dies, but I still try to make the best poster for my requesters. 

It is really sad how people really can't wait or even try to understand your story. 

So I have decided until further notice I will not be making any more posters.

I will, however, get the ones I have already promised to do, and post them soon as possible. 

But other than those I will not be doing any more graphic requests. 

I am very heartbroken that even, after all, my hard work and trying to get things done

people still don't appreciate it! 

What do you guys think? Am I overexaggerating?

first of all im sorry q-q
honestly thats how it work. i mean even in real life clients are annoying. if im allowed to put it in "mean" words: designer need to work even if they dont feel like to, its their job. if someone do art according to their mood its called artist (like painter etc ). thats what my lecturer said orz;; but then again your main priority is your rl, i shouldnt put job consequences here. its not like you get money- ;___; eeps sorry

but you are wonderful for doing all at once o_o youre trully wonderful! take care, dont get sick. drink enough water and eat your meal and try to get enough rest!! (( get well soon to your dad! ))
maybe try to limit the request next time? like 5 per uh 2 weeks or so?
if you need reference or inspiration maybe browse things on the internet maybe it'll help!
fighting!!
and sorry i blabber a lot omg

In this site, people will never appreciate your work, it doesn't matter how many ttimes you stop ddesigning and come back.

They will never appreciate the time and work you put in a poster.

It's pointless to stop or try changing this, because even when you come back once, it will ccontinue from there where you broke off.
Nothing will change.

No your not exaggerating at all. People should realize that certain things need to wait instead of pushing the person to do things quickly. It's always best to put things aside and be you. Designers should take things their own way and they shouldn't be pressured. For instance, I'm learning graphic design at school and also work part time and take care of my family as well but things do get stressful alot of times and people need to realize that the person whose designing it, needs time for themselves and be free and figure things out. We don't need to feel pressured to the point that something will turn out not soooo good. Its wise to take your own pace and people who want posters should no what the limits are and realize that designers need a moment for themselves and be free for once.

No. Thats fine. Happened to me all the time when readers rushed me to update the stories. Take your time.. Ideas surely came at least expected time.

No you're not. Art should not be rushed at all. I share the sentiments whenever I am forced to join essay contests and the like, time pressure really kills creativity and you'll end up doing something you're unsatisfied with.

You know what you can handle and if you are feeling overwhelmed with everything, it is understandable.
Designing is something a lot of people do in their free time, or sometimes it's their profession.
Take care of yourself, have fun and take everything at your own pace! :)

no, you are merely asking others to respect your right as a human being...
i'm sorry to know your father is ill as my grandfather is semi-paralysed as well, needing me by his side...
so, for now, take a well deserved rest and don't stress yourself...
don't give up on your dream...
FIGHTING!!! you have my support...^^
