fashion?

So I have always wanted to be an artist.I think I would have what it takes to be one, I am somewhat creative, and have certain skills that would help me be one?

Ugh, I used to be able to draw, but now not so much. I can draw patterns, I love patterns, whenever I have free time you can find me drawing little skteches in random places.

I always wondered what would have happened if I ever followed my dream to go into fashion and create master pieces. Fashion illustration, fashion patterns, something like this: ---->

 But life took me a different direction. I am still very fashionable don't get me wrong :) I just don'w work in the industry. I think that my dream job would have been to work for a fashion magazine, or a fashion puclic relations firm. I have been told many times though that fashion is a nasty industry, which I half believe. I understand the drama and eating disorders, and drugs etc., but life is what you make it. Just make the right decisions. Just because those things are associated to it, it does not have to define the industry as a whole.

The way I see it is, beautiful deisngs, creations, colors, life, shapes, patterns, creativity, hard work, money.

Yes, one day I will be part of it, impacting the world in my own way in this "glamorous" industry.
