after years of doing design-related stuff for myself and professionally, occasionally something just clicks and you start wondering why you hadn’t been doing it all along
fig. 1, a blank canvas. the adversary. an overwhelming avatar of option paralysis
fig. 2, the canvas, after gaining purchase on it through application of a fucking, outline,,, and subsequently defeated with art
somehow, probably due to many years of web/print/graphic design, my brain got rewired for this. art pours out of me in autopilot mode, so long as the base requirement that it fits some mental definition of “design” is met (whether it’s a page layout or an album cover or a sticker or a comic panel/page or…)
anyway i’m gonna let this revelation marinate and see what work falls out of my brain in the process
