I think my graphic design job is in danger. How do I actually improve?
I think my graphic design job is in danger. How do I actually improve?
I've learned the basic design principles, but whenever I start a design, my mind goes completely blank.
Most of the time I end up copying layouts from Pinterest and recreating them in Photoshop because I don't know where to place text, what shapes to use, or how to make a composition from scratch.
HELP ME WITH THIS TOO-
Also, where do designers get all those small design elements like arrows, underlines, scribbles, lines, icons, and other decorative assets? Do you create them yourself or download them from somewhere?
How did you get past this stage? Any resources, exercises, or advice would really help.
