To leave Time, that is.

I found this blog post by Edel Rodriguez this morning and I thought I'd share it.

For the past 13 years, I’ve been a designer and art director at TIME magazine.  Friday was my last day on the job.   I made the decision to leave the magazine so I could spend more time with my family and devote more of my energy to the various art projects that I’ve been involved with for many years—editorial illustration, posters, writing children’s books, work for galleries, animation, etc.  Part of my home studio will continue to take on some design and art direction projects, but I hope to visually integrate those more with the rest of my work.

What follows is an insightful and enlightening rationale for why, after all this time, its time to leave Time.

As he notes I thought I’d write about working for TIME magazine because it might be of help to students that are trying to figure out what to do when leaving art school. And so it is. . .
