| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: As a graphic designer, I always try to create unique and appropriate solutions to different tasks. I find that my best work has come out of projects that I struggled with initially and worked very hard to resolve. My creative process involves a lot of brainstorming and trial and error, both through sketches and digital comps. I learn new skills and techniques every day, and I believe that the world of design is a never ending process of critique, revision, and improvement. While my education at CSU has led me to have a very diverse portfolio, my favorite area to focus on, and what I would like to pursue a career in, is magazine layout design. I enjoy creating a visual environment for textual content, and my typography skills have greatly developed because of that. Although sometimes it is challenging to integrate text with design, I have found that there are limitless ways to engage the reader through a well-designed, creative layout. I find a lot of joy in creating work that presents a message I believe in, but I also value what I learn from working on projects that are entirely about form and aesthetics. Most of my work is strongly grounded in typographic content and a cohesive color scheme, while some pieces, such as several posters I have completed, focus on an interesting photograph that serves as the color palette and compositional structure of the project. My goals for improving my skills as a designer during my last semester in college include shifting my focus from typography to illustration, and learning about website development and design by creating my own online site and portfolio. I am excited to be finishing my time as a scholar and applying everything I have learned-and continue to learn every day-to a career as a professional graphic designer. | |
