These are the musings of Debbie Millman. Debbie has been in the design business for 25 years. She is a Partner and President of the Design division at Sterling Brands, one of the leading brand identity firms in the country. Consider this site the result of that work, and perhaps (but not necessarily) the antidote. Debbie is a board member of the National AIGA, and teaches at the School of Visual Arts and Fashion Institute of Technology. She is also an author on the design blog Speak Up, a regular contributor to Print Magazine and she hosts a weekly internet radio talk show on the Voice America Business network titled Design Matters. Her first book, "How To Think Like A Great Graphic Designer," was published by Allworth Press in 2007; her second, "Essential Principles of Graphic Design," was published by Rotovision in 2008, and a book of illustrated essays titled "Look Both Ways" will be published in the Fall.

That's because so many of us bright, creative and ambitious young people want to make a decent living doing something we love while still being able to raise families in this over-priced world.
Hmm. I was just beginning to believe that it was possible to fall out of love with Bansky.
That said, I agree with the previous comment. My art friends can barely afford to make anything because they're working three part-time jobs. I would also like to point out that some advertisements have been deeply moving or artistically wonderful and could in fact be called art. I don't believe you have to be an artist only (by title) to be an artist.
I think they go towards advertisement because it's the easy dollar without much hustling in the shortest time frame. Granted advertisement isn't really easy, but you got people who put years of hard work and struggles to make it big. For example: Totem2 graf writer in Atlanta, who's been painting for 15 years. He's made graf work for him and making 6 figures out of it. Same with the Seventh Letter Crew and of course Banksy
I disagree with the comment. Is Banksy suggesting that as a result of talent going to advertising that ads have more to say? It's quite a statement to say that "never...has so much been used to say so little"... Never? in the history of humans? How does he know? To me this kind of silly statement is self-obsessed.
