Do you think I have potential?

[Susanna-Cole]

Hi I'm was wondering if I could get some feedback on my portfolio/graphic design work. I'm only 17, and I'm really just an amatuer, self-taught since I was 12, with a free little image program that I use, so I'm not a professional, please keep that in mind. I'm considering going to art school and going into graphic design as a career, but I'm not sure if I have potiental or not (regardless of the fact that friends and family and sometimes even strangers think I do... you know though, how friends and families can be a bit biased ) ... so any feedback or critque, or opinions on whether you think I have potiental or not, would be much appreciated!

Here is the link to my website:

If you don't feel like going to the portfolio on my site, I'll make it easy for you, and upload and give you direct links:

P.S. Please just critique my graphic work... I realize my coding is a mess! Never was fond of coding, need to work on improving my skills!

Potential? Yes yes! Welcome to the forum by the way, and exactly what carlyz said, I've learned so much in the short time I've been on this forum.

Seeing as how you have such passion about this, with a little more knowledge I think you are going to be fantastic!

Good luck!
