This has been my favorite so far! The way her mind and creativity work is fascinating. The main take away for me was really creative inspiration - I couldn't help myself from purchasing old christmas cards from a thrift store in hopes of coming up with something even remotely interesting as Marion's christmas card valentine series.
Like the other graphic designers we have seen, it's reassuring to see so many resist the idea of continuing to do what they've always done because they know it so well. They pushed themselves to grow and develop, even if it meant taking a risk and holding a mirror to yourself almost at all times.
Marion echoed the same sentiment as Jessica Hische, "unless you're really paying attention, you're never going to see it". Her key points that there is a place for the personal artist in the corporate sphere, that the work should be good enough to have longevity outside of its original purpose, and that multiple layers payoff really struck a chord. It makes perfect sense that she is as highly acclaimed, respected, and sought-after as she is because she puts meaningful thought and empathy into her design and work.
