On more than one occasion I’ve found myself trying to explain to my “non-designer” friends that there’s a major blessing and a curse to being a designer, or any artist for that matter. It’s virtually impossible to turn it off. Whether sitting in front of a computer screen with the Adobe Creative Suite open or not, subconsciously or consciously, I look at the world in spacial relationships, color, composition, etc. And yes, that foot mark instead of an apostrophe on that billboard along the highway is making my eyes bleed! The blessing part is when you see that image in front of you that’s so unexpected and serendipitous that you just have to grin from ear to ear. The curse? That you forgot your camera. Well, Matt Stuart doesn’t forget his camera. If you need a bit of a pick-me-up… browse through his collection of incredible “Happy Accidents” photographs. They warm my little designer heart. Here are a select few:
