I agree with what you guys said. This is a dilemma that I have every time I work on personal projects ( especially on portfolios).
Which is better, to show all your creative abilities or to keep a balance between creativity and accessibility. Or does that depend on the person behind the creation?

If you are primarily an illustrator or a print designer, then accessibility issues will probably be overlooked by a potential client (assuming the client even knows anything about accessibility). Still, we should probably try to strike a balace.
