Truth and Clarity Through Design

FrenchPress

truthandclarity

My sister and I recently collaborated with a small agency here in OKC. It was so inspiring to see them craft their work with their hands - to breathe life into their work and make it real, instead of letting it stagnate on a computer screen.

I've been doing design long enough that it's easy to take for granted. But lately I've had the desire to push it a step further. To step away from the iMac and design with my hands (and my heart). To find some truth in the way I work and some clarity in what I'm working for.

  1. Well said. It's so easy for us to get lost in the glowing boxes in front of our faces. I'd love to start creating more "real" things.

  2. I completely agree! I spend most of my "Creative time" on the computer editing photos. I'm a very creative and crafty person... and so I have been craving a project that I could create with my hands. NOT involving a computer. I have a lot of ideas! :) I am so eager. So I completely understand what you're saying!
