So, a few years ago I wrote and illustrated a children’s book. A couple years later I made another one. Now, I’m part way through a third. I had already worked on a few books professionally, but that was really more about bringing a client’s vision to life.

Do people outside of the graphic design world actually see good design? When I took my first design class in college, I learned all about the principles of design, color theory, kerning, typography, hierarchy of information, white space, etc., and with my new knowledge and enthusiastic spirit, I set out into the wild to exercise my creative snobbery and point out all of the wrongdoings in the graphic design world.
Imagine you’re watching a commercial. The visuals are stunning, a sleek car glides down a winding coastal road, the sun sets in the background, and everything looks perfect. But something’s missing. The scene is oddly silent, making the experience fall flat. Now, add a pulsating beat or a symphony of strings, and suddenly, the visuals spring to life.
