Artist looking for an artist job

Hey All,

I am an artist looking for an artist job (Graphic, Museum, Character Design, etc), and I am not picky.

The problem is I been searching for five years. I have a job, (8) hours, so believe me when I say I'm grateful to support my two year old. I also understand there are those in a worst position than I am currently in.

For those in a serious position (unemployed, homeless, etc) I prey for them, because I believe in a perfect world everyone has a job, is happy, and can strive in the is world.

The boat I am in, I feel feel unwanted, unheard, and unused. I'm just not sure about my next move. I did the following: -Redid my resume -Uploaded my resume to Jobcase, LinkedIn, glassdoor, etc -Expanded my job search

I am at a loss,

Dustin

Hi Dustin: Sounds like you may want to check out freelancing options to build up your portfolio until you transition to a 9 to 5 artist job! Have you heard of sites like Upwork.com or Guru.com? You can place project proposals for graphic design jobs and other projects that might be what you're looking for. It takes a lot of work, but it's a great way to build up a portfolio. It's how I got started in copywriting!
