New graphic designers face the most criticism
Perfectionism: Allows a graphic designer to do her best work
but can also hold a designer back by forcing the designer to
take excessive time to complete a project and making the
designer more hesitant to take risks.
Expectations: Clients do not always explain their desires
clearly, and making corrections afterward takes more effort
and time than getting the project accepted the first time
Deadlines often run tight.
Producing quality work takes time.
Rushing a project will likely be returned for corrections.
