I'll go a little on the other side.
I have many different books on design and in one I really like the preface from I. Itten:
"If you are able to create masterpieces without knowing the laws of color ownership, then your path lies in this" ignorance ". The point is
that a beginner in design you don't always need to delve into color and typography.You need to determine what your strengths are.Tackling each project in terms of your strengths, you will understand what you lack.For
more useful articles, visit the web designer portfolio site (elikov.ru ).
