A few days ago I watched "The Gap" by Ira Glass on YouTube. I am a fairly creative person, but I found myself in that video 100%. My taste and my designs do not quite match up yet, and most of the work I produce although technically correct, is pure (s)crap from design point of view. Before watching this video, I would just abandon whatever project I was working on because I did not like it. It looked better in my head, and on the paper. After watching this video I decided to plow through several of these projects, because I agree that an artist, or a writer, or any creator can achieve his or her own taste but before it happens he or she has to produce a great volume of (s)crap, stuff that is substandard to our goals and taste. Here are a few abandoned projects that I decided to finish in the following weeks. Maybe this will get me closer to my goal, a design perfection equaling my taste.
Keep doing an excellent work. I like your bright colours and unique approach very much.
