isn’t it strange how the creative mind works?
sometimes we have an idea.
it can be anything visual, really.
an idea for a logo.
an idea for a graphic.
an idea for a painting,
or the interior design of a bedroom.
anything.
it all starts with an idea.
an image in our head.
we construct it.
we mold it.
bringing in colors,
shapes,
text,
textures.
we explain it to others,
we brainstorm together.
and then it’s executed.
sometimes it’s seen so clearly.
sometimes it’s vague.
but regardless, there’s always a picture in our heads.
a picture of how we want it to look like,
and of what we think it should look like.
i’m trying to train myself to see these things in my head with more detail.
if i were to see things with more detail in my head,
and then just simply construct exactly what i see,
i would spend less time executing the idea only to realize it doesn’t look quite as good as what i thought it would.
less edits.
better results.
and yes, i totally just spent countless hours working on an idea that looked so great in my head and it ended up not being quite what i wanted.
it’s probably actually not as bad as i think it is, but thats unfortunately not how my mind works.
oh, and in case you were wondering, this post has no real point..
carry on..
