๐ As a creative web developer/designer I've fallen in the trap of putting too much emphasis on my artistry instead of making my your designs were easy to understand and to use for my users! ๐๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฌ ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ช๐ป๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ด๐ช๐จ๐ฏ๐ด ๐ค๐ข๐ฏ'๐ต ๐ซ๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐ฃ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ข๐ถ๐ต๐ช๐ง๐ถ๐ญ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ช๐ต, ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ข๐ค๐ต๐ถ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐บ ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ด๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฐ.
๐ค Now, I try to make the distinction between when I'm acting as an artist and when I'm acting as a designer (or when I'm trying to be both). Understanding the difference between the two allows me to be more intentional in my creative pursuits and remember exactly what I'm trying to achieve.
๐ When it's all about me I let my artistry flow unrestrained; when I'm creating for an audience I try to let my design side take over and try to cater to my audience!
