“Theres a couple reasons I keep coming back to, the first is simply my own selfish need to create. It’s just what I have to do, and I feel lucky to be part of an industry that fulfills this need on a fundamental level. I bet a lot of designers/illustrators/makers feel the same way and are hopefully in a position that they can use their natural talents all day long.
The other aspect that I’m always thinking about is the connection that’s made through our work. This can be as simple as hearing one persons interpretation of your work or seeing the larger impact of something you’ve designed out in the world. We put so much of our time and energy into the work and it’s incredibly rewarding to see it connecting with people, hopefully in a positive way.”
