looking for someting creative, where i can make money and enjoy my work.

Answer 1

Industrial design is a good way to use your love of hands-on work, along with making money.

Industrial design is like product design... everything from television remotes to dentist chairs, toasters, hairdryers, cash registers, furniture... EVERYTHING must be designed to be easy-to-use, intuitive, comfortable. To be successful as a product designer, you use a lot of your creativity.

I'm in design school, and the ability to use my creativity for a PURPOSE, to create things for people to use, is so rewarding.

For some information about Industrial Design, check out wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_design

Answer 2

why don't you look into design, functional, etc. Designing things like furniture, kitcheware, all that stuff we use everyday. It can be much more lucrative than Graphic Design, it's three dimensional and more hands on. I have a friend in furniture design right now and another that went to Parsons(i think that's what it's called) in NYC and both are loving it. Good luck, do what you love, worry about money and junk later, it will pay off when you don't loathe going to work every morning like some of us.

Answer 3

You could easily make a supplemental income by displaying your crafts at flea markets or craft shows. Alot of cities/churches and other places have craft shows that are advertised on websites and in newspapers.

You could also sell what you like to make on an auction site, like Ebay. There are a few people that make a pretty good income from that. :)

Answer 4

well there are so many different forms of art that you can chose from to go into business doing. 1st i'd suggest exploring all mediums and finding what you are best at .
i'm a professional faux finisher and muralist and it makes good money but it is very hard work
if you like to draw there's cartooning ( doing airbrush t- shirts at theme parks is very lucrative) caricture drawing , game design, sign printing ect
you could paint pics paint furniture the possibilities are really endless find what your best at and go out and do it no one can really tell you how to start your own business like that you just have to put yourself out there and sometimes make sacrifices
