Post 5: My future job

Hello, today I'm gonna tell you about my "dream job"

When I was a child I dreamed to be an artist and dedicate to illustrate children's stories, like fairytales!  And now I'm studying Visual Arts but I'm not specializing in drawing, illustration or painting, moreover just this year I started to work harder on my drawing.
However following that line  I'd like to work building toys, speciffically miniature scenarios made with wood or paper , like very small rooms or even houses, with tiny furniture, I think I could create scenarios from fairytales like the gingerbread house where lives the witch from Hansel & Gretel !

It would be an indoor job, but I'd like to work in a big workshop with huge windows so the sun could enter and thus not use artificial light during day, and also the air would be renewed, which is important when working with painting. I can imagine it with walls painted in pastel colors like baby blue and a lot of plants!

I think it could be uncomfortable to travel with all the materials and tools (although it's something I usually do), but I think It could be intersting and fun to do it, visit different places and perhaps make miniatures of those places where I'll stay!

About the salary, that type of work is expensive, specially due to the time invested on it, so I think if worked freelance I would sell it expensive in order to the complexity of the pieces. I really don't know if I could work on something like this on a companny or Toy store, but if it was the case I wouldn't accept a low salary... although I know it's so difficult to find a job like that 😓

I'm thinking of taking the speciallization on Photography ! Maybe it could sound like it don't have a lot in common with what I'm writing about but this year I started to experiment scale change photographs with little spaces that I have built, mini rooms with old toys that I have kept since my childhood that appear to be life-size! I'll post a couple of thos photos!

Thanks for reading <3
