Posted @withrepost • @itsnicethat On the site today, we talk to Jon Gray (@Gray.318) about what it's like designing book covers for some of the biggest authors and publishers around. A little bit of luck and a lot of skill helped guide Jon into his field, and he's been building an enviable portfolio ever since. But despite jumping from #bestseller to bestseller, he tells us that he’s often still critical of his own work and reveals the all-too familiar struggles that may come with many creative practices.⠀ ∙⠀ “Getting past that seems to get harder and harder the longer you do the job. It’s learning how to switch off that critical voice long enough to give yourself the time to play, to experiment, that I think is the key to making good work.” #itsnicethat #bookdesign
