BGcurrently, no and yes haha . im working on one brand right now week in and out and I know it back to front so it just gets boring after a while, but this is where most steady jobs lie. On the other hand ive got a good team and work life balance in my company so its more those factors which are enjoyable. One thing to note a lot of the media channels in design are rapidly shifting to digital/social media etc so being good at design from a traditional sense in layout/typography/concepts is taking less priority to having a variety of digital skillsets eg, coding, after effects, UI/UX - Adobe XD etc (from the companies i've worked for anyway).
Do you find you have enough time to continue your personal practice? In college I always fantasized being the lone wolf, individualist painter who made a living off my personal art but it goes without saying those rose tinted glasses broke in two pretty fast, and I’ve been looking into graphic design work among other options.

I have other creative endeavors i follow outside design just as hobbies. personally i dont touch it or think about it outside of the 9-5.
