Graphic Designers and Artists are in high demand, but with advancements in software and the growth of the internet, some fear that these jobs will die off.
The graphic arts have evolved over the centuries from a means of communicating to a few to communicating at the speed of light over the internet. Graphic design software has evolved as well into a more user-friendly interface, making graphic design more accessible to computer users with limited computer skills. With all of this user-friendliness, some people wonder if graphic design jobs will become obsolete.
People soon realized that if they carved the stone with raised letters and in mirror image of what they wanted, they could put ink on the raised areas and press materials against it to produce clearer, more easily read pieces. Over the next few centuries, graphic design moved from stone to printed books, woodcuts and movable type, all of which required the aid of trained professionals to design the type and art that went along with it.
