Is it really necessary for a graphic designer to be able to draw?
I hope I’ll avoid polemic with this article. I invite any reader to share his/her opinion about this article.From my perspective there’s no need for a graphic design to be a great drawer, but he/she has to be a good designer. I honestly think it’s a misconception to think that if you’re a good designer it’s because you’re simply good drawing. In the world many people know how to draw well, but they’re not designers.
Nowadays exist many programs that make our lives easier when it comes to designing, even when it comes to drawing. But most of all, what a good designer really needs is “designing talent”. Because many times we create beautiful designs with good pictures, good fonts and good balance in the picture.
With this “designing talent” you’ll be able to create any type of graphic master pieces and you’ll be able to solve many difficulties along the path.
