It is a combination of text and images. It influences people’s thoughts and choices. It is a profession, an academic discipline and an applied art. It is a visual communication project with specific purposes and specific messages for social groups.

It is not possible to say exactly how long it will take to learn graphics. Because learning anything or acquiring complete skills depends on a person’s patience, interest in learning and how much time he is spending.
But you can give an idea about it. For example, there are many private universities which have 3 or 4 year courses at a low cost. From where you can earn a degree in this subject.

How does a graphic designer earn passive income
Many of us have an idea about passive income. Still, let me tell you something more, if you upload a few designs to the microstock website, then the designs are sold to people throughout the year. Simply put, once you design something and sell it throughout the year, it is called passive income.
How to earn passive income with designs?
Nowadays, there are many customers who are looking for ready-made designs. That is, designs that are already ready-made. There are certain websites on the internet where such designs are available.
Different customers come to download their required designs from those websites. Now the question may come to your mind if the customer downloads from the website, then what is your profit! Yes, you have a profit.
Customers or visitors usually purchase their designs in two ways, some buy them once and some can buy monthly or annual designs so that they can download the designs as per their wish. Basically, here a designer gets his money through the website.
When a designer uploads a design with a price, a customer pays that fixed price online. Then that website deducts their cost and sends the remaining money to the designer’s account.
