my rules for keeping things fresh in your creative career
1) create something for fun
2) create something to inspire your younger self
3) create something you will hold onto
If you make products just hammer this into your brain over and over and over again
because there will come a time when someone challenges these design choices either out of cost or "irrelevancy" to the end user
and you're going to look at them with pure disgust
@NicoTheLefty if ALW's new signature paddle was actually good with her new sponsor, I reckon signing her would be my 1st choice.
But if it wasn't, I'd take Chris all day!
