I love graphic design since it enables you to express so much creativity that others will see and enjoy. My drawings as a kid were very intense so I started young. My son's the same way. He draws all the time.
I did my first logo for a company when I was about 13. A friend of my fathers was a big dress manufacturer in LA and he was stuck trying to come up with a name and logo for a new line he was making. My father knew I liked to draw so he said why don't you see what you can come up with, you never know. I went to work like crazy, so excited for the chance, and came up with one, sent it to my dad's friend and he flipped out for it and sent me a check for $1000. Which back in the late '60's was a shit load of $ for a 13 year old. The coolest thing wasn't the money, it was going to department stores and seeing my design hanging on the dress tags in the racks. It was just an awesome feeling.
When I got into porn, and phone sex, all the design work we needed was right up my alley, cause we got to the point where we had ads on every couple pages in Hustler and I designed them all myself. So that was fun too.
