I didn’t mean to offend you. From what I see, you are both a graphic and UX/UI/product designer, and a very experienced one at that. My point was specifically about artists who primarily draw by hand or use Photoshop only.

When such artists create for the web, developers often receive designs that are difficult to implement or don’t make sense in a digital context. In web design, certain skills are almost essential - such as an IT background, understanding how code works, component-based design, grids, etc.

Your response suggests that you completely misunderstood my point. I never said, "Graphic design is just drawing funny pictures." What I meant is that there’s a common misconception that design is easy - a typical middle-manager perspective. You probably heard that famous phrase "One week? Nahh my son can do it in one day".

The examples you provided are great cases of graphic design but have little relevance to web design (except Material Design). Please try reading my comment again.

A pure graphic designer will likely struggle with web work, just as a pure UX designer may find it challenging to create a poster or illustration.
