PROJECT: Paint Rush
ROLE: Whole UI Development
DURATION: 28 March 2022 - 1 April 2022
Project Vision
Paint Rush is a art learning service that primarily allows beginner artist broaden their knowledge about certain concept of art and sculpturing. With current Learning platform available on web , a user can't get customized lessons based on their interest and many of them ask for heavy price. In PaintRush you can customize the website based on your preferences
Challenges
1- Creating a clean and proffessional Interface
2- Making a fast and easy to access navigation
3- Allowing user to have knowledge about every art and sculpture
4- Removing useless interfaces so user can interact with app as fast as possible
KICK OFF
Starting off, I asked myself a few initial questions. Who is our primary user? What kind of goals do they have? Why would someone want to use this application? Just how large of a scope do I want this project to be? After interviewing four participants to establish archetypes later on, it became evident that the goals they wanted to accomplish all fell within the same categories; finding out more about their listening habits & identifying more of the music they like.
Prioritization Plotting
Plotting a list of the possible features onto a graph helped narrow down what was absolutely crucial for delivering the mvp and would could be built upon further down the road. A big draw of using this application is to be able to get game lineups and trick in instance when user find themself in condition they didn't thought of. We can help users reach this goal by creating what is essentially a business card for each user.

Information Architecture
P&P Wireframe
Before moving onto high fidelity wireframes and mocks, I wanted to get a feel for what the core of the app would look like when put in front of me.
WireFlow
After a sketch then I make basic wire flow which lead to making prototype of the application. Which end up in replica of application.
Style Guide
Takeaways
Being a Digital artist myself, working on PaintRush was Incredibly rewarding. I got to experiment with some of the new Adobe XD features, and narrow down my design process. Although I was not able to fully flesh out other features and designs I wanted to within Paint Rush due to time constraints, it's not to say I won't try to incorporate them in future projects down the line.
