Graphic Artist Salaries
Artists are considered to be poorly paid, but with the turnaround in the media and the explosion of dotcom companies, graphic artists are fast becoming hot commodities and are earning big money. Most traditional graphic artists created print products such as packaging, promotional displays, marketing brochures or books, designed logos for products and businesses, or worked on the visual designs of annual reports and other corporate propaganda. However, modern graphic artists are steadily entering into the lucrative and fast-evolving profession of web design to earn quick riches.

Nonprofit Jobs
Ellen is graduating in Fall 2006 and has plans to work with a non-profit organization and, in her words, “contribute to the community and at same time enjoy an informal work environment.” There are others like her wanting to have full-time employment, volunteer opportunities or a fellowship in any leading non-profit organization. To them, salary is not a criterion, but should be sufficient to cover essential needs. Similarly, a job position could be account or administrative assistants, fund raising or volunteer, and part- or full-time work identifying with their skills and studies.
