I do believe in Creative Intelligence
It’s something that is innate and can’t necessarily be learned. It can however be honed. What I believe will make me a stronger designer is if I take the time to become an artist first.
Art Versus Design:
Artists are more freeform, they think and create based on instinct and vision. Conceptually — Art dissects the world, interprets it, tells stories and makes statements....

im just thinking. have you ever thought about what protects our hearts? we’re just breakable boys and girls, after all. truly vulnerable. some of us can show this fragileness, this delicate flimsy muscle in our chest that tells us everything important in life, some of us can show it, some of us aren’t afraid. but some of us can’t. the world presses down on our human shoulders and even the most...

Sometimes I lose myself, and forget that I am worth so much more. I run around like crazy trying to get some kind of reassurance, some kind of fulfillment, and end up coming back home feeling empty handed, cheated and just plain cheap and dirty.
