Abstract

The artist's statement: In my work I am mostly drawn to the use of darker colors, simple logo designs and heavy uses of typography and illustration. Typography is essential to have in graphic design because it is the most efficient way to communicate and convey messages. Typography is a field that has been heavily emphasized in my classes by phenomenal teachers and is a skill I feel very confident in. throughout my design courses I have had the opportunity to work on examples of real life projects such as logo design, corporate branding, packaging, poster design and some more creative projects like game board design and album covers. These projects have taught me to think outside the box, ask questions, research and have afforded me with rich experiences as well as practice of my graphic design skills. After graduation I hope to continue working with typography because I believe that it is one of if not the most important key areas of Graphic Design. I wish to continue working in graphic design because I am very passionate and drawn to it. I have been involved within graphic design programs for several years now and want to continue down this path as I go out into the working world. While I have years of formal training I am eager to learn new concepts within graphic design in a non classroom setting. One thing about design is it is a chance to continue learning important methods of versatile creativity. I believe that these qualities in addition to my design experience and skills will allow me to succeed in the working world of graphic design.
