Produce Like Picasso: Mastering Design Delivery

#sxsw #picasso

Iap18066

Pablo Picasso was a prolific artist. He produced over 150,000 pieces of art, which equates to delivering seven finished pieces of art each day of his career. Picasso also delivered in different mediums: paintings, sculptures, ceramics, architecture, and more. What was Picasso’s mindset? What methods did he use? How did Picasso move from concept to production so quickly?
In this talk, you will learn how to produce Picasso and avoid the pitfalls of production. We will review Picasso's production principles with examples from his life. By applying the principles of Picasso, designers can create more effectively and quickly.
NOTE: This is a follow-up to my 2013 SxSW presentation “Design Like DaVinci” where I focused on how designers could learn sketching secrets for early concepts, mock-ups, and wireframes. Where that presentation discussed “how to saturate a design space” with sketches, this presentation looks at “how to produce results from initial ideas.”
