In the graphics industry, the only constant is change.

As a budding designer, I started with Freehand, my very first software program. I LOVED it so much that it made me become a full time graphic designer. Freehand got bought out, and it was all Illustrator after that.

Then, I got into Hypercards. Also LOVED it. There are still some Hypercards fans out there who mourn its demise to this day.

Then, I got my very first graphic design job with my knowledge of Quark. Then, you know what happened? Quark XPress lost the battle to InDesign, and I can't remember what finally killed Quark. All I knew at the time was that I had to learn InDesign to keep my job. So I did. And switched to the Adobe Design System.

But that's not the end. I had also learnt Avid analog video editing and Final Cut Pro. But both have been eclipsed by much more powerful video editing software. I now use Adobe Premiere mostly.

Photoshop's been the only constant art software program (for me) that I got into right at the beginning and is still going strong.

I recently started using Canva. Of course, I was shocked by what it offered. SHOCKED at how fast graphic design technology has developed and by how much outputting power is now at creators' fingertips.

But in this cycle of software development, we're only in the beginning. Over the next 20 years, we'll be seeing things we can never imagine today.
