[PORTFOLIO] Self-taught Graphic Designer, wondering if I have what it takes to keep pursuing this career path.
Hi friends! As the title mentioned, I'm trying to break into the world of graphic design. I put together my website using Squarespace, but I kind of hate how generic it is and am working on a new from-scratch design. In the mean time, I would love some feedback on my design projects, their quality, yay or nay on what I chose to present, and just any general notes on whether or not you see a future for me as a graphic designer.

Also, if any of you are also self-taught, I'd love to know what approach you took and where you learned your skills! Thank you all so much!
Edit: Hey everyone! Thank you all SO much for your comments and critiques! I have learned a ton and am feeling more confident about starting a new career path! There is a lot of great advice in this post and I hope that other self-taught designers find it as useful as I did.
