There is an entire world of people fighting everyday to be relevant and I’ve been willfully ignoring it because I didn’t want to participate in age appropriate creative processes. Because I’ve always catered to family friendly media I’ve never taken a chance on thinking creatively.
I know it to be true that I use graphic design as a way to cope with my inability to illustrate. And the worst part is... I don’t even try to draw. I pride myself on my mental toolbox but I spread myself thin creatively feeding my wandering lust for new ways to make me feel fulfilled through my work.
I poured my creativity into creating digital marketing material helping businesses kickstart their digital advertising; and it was genuinely fulfilling... But about six months ago I realized that I had not picked up an instrument to practice or play for almost two years, and I couldn’t bear to keep living that way.
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped me become the person I am. I can’t believe how my life is turning out.
“I grew up and currently live in Ann Arbor Mi, and when you’re headed down 23 south into A2 you see the city start to emerge from behind the sea of trees. That’s probably why they call it “the city in the trees”. But to me it’s always been a representation of everything Michigan is... resting on the right hand of God ”
-Thomas
