    First thing today that made me laugh. Ludicrousness in art.

    This is a really dumb-ass idea. How far do you think you can get by parodying people important to your career? No wonder you’re stuck in a dead-end job like yours. Now get back to work and do something worthwhile. Make something of yourself instead of drawing stupid cartoons. Sheesh!

    I disagree with the Winehouse analogy I think the drugs made her way more entertaining and she is an entertainer, therefore drugs made her better at what she does and didn’t kill her

    While I understand “Client thinks he’s creative” – I’ve had several clients (usually goaded on by their spouses) who have ruined things for me by giving me their creative input. I don’t think all people do that. I think a clients quite often have great ideas about their product or service and simply do not know how to execute it.

    Everyone thinks this is awesome, as if to agree wholeheartedly with the message these illustrations convey. But…I believe we have all shut down an idea a time or two in our lives. So let these simple drawings be a message to us all to be a little more aware of what we hear and how we reply.

    the art in this is awesome. i only have one criticism about it.

    Every idea is a good idea, even if it’s a bad idea. That’s how you learn from your mistakes and grow from them.

    if it’s not creative director, it’s gotta be budget.
