My daughter also considered illustration but in her case was encouraged by her instructor in her Wintersession course to try ID. In some ways it’s too bad because she is so strong in drawing; but she also has really strong “3-D” sense and will probably make more use of that in her field than she would in illustration. In any case now that she’s in the working world, she’s finding ways to use a variety of the skills she’s learned at RISD including doing graphic design. I suspect that the use of computers and computer design programs is growing rapidly across all design programs including illustration.
