My major is Fine Arts: Design and the careers I would like to pursue would be along the lines of visual arts, such as display and exhibit design, advertising design, or graphic design. 

            I am interested in the Design career, but while doing research I discovered that it is a highly competitive field.  It may help to earn a bachelor's degree.  The skills required for this career are a keen eye for design, creativity, artistic ability, and interpersonal/social skills.  Since a designer is required to keep in contact with their employer, it is essential to learn how to communicate with them.  Job duties include discussing design projects with your client or employer, preparing sketches of your designs to present, and using computers to create finished designs. 

          For me it is important to continue my education for many reasons. The first is to stimulate my intellect, the second is to practice making art with experienced and wise professors, and the third is to get a degree so I can get a job. Next year I will graduate from LaGuardia with an Associate in Science degree, Fine Arts. I chose this major because I love to draw and paint and when I make art I know I was born only to experience that feeling. I would like to go get Bachelor Degree after getting my Associate Degree. The experience in LaGuardia College and in Art Student League of New York taught me how important it is for an artist to be in a creatively and intellectually stimulating environment. Five years from now I would like to be a great designer in my field.
