Hi, is doing graphic design work and painting against the rules? For example, doing monastery or buddhist websites or painting dhamma relevant pictures for teaching purposes. Thanks for all answers.

I’m a former graphic designer and we have many creative types in the monastery. There’s always someone making a card for something. I haven’t seen anything in the Vinaya saying that it is wrong livelihood for a monastic. I both do design for stuff around the monastery and also create my own ‘doodle…

Graphic design and painting as a bhikkhu or bhikkhuni, Vinaya
