| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for art. It is this passion and drive to become a better artist that led me to Colorado State University. My long-term career goal is to find a company that will allow me to put my creativity to good use. I plan on working in the field of graphic design. Companies are always on the lookout for creative minds to design their logos, product labels, and communicate visual ideas. I believe that through this school's art programs and studios I have gained a better understanding of what it will take to succeed in the art world. As a graphic designer, I will work alongside clients and other artists to produce and communicate visual ideas. There are two essential aspects to graphic design: typography and illustration. Over the past two years my main focus has been typography. I enjoy coming up with new typefaces as well as various forms of branding. Producing a new typeface is time consuming as it requires drawing out each individual letter of our twenty-six lettered alphabet. For me, creating a typeface or a logo is like solving a creative puzzle. I am drawn to the classic, bold and simple styles of design. Many of my pieces are bold in terms of color and line work. Recently I have experimented with more illustrative pieces. This means the illustrations were more the focus of the project rather than the typography although the typography of the piece is always vital to its overall flow and composition. My illustrations reflect my passion for the simple and bold design styles, which may have been influenced by my European background. Whenever I can, I incorporate my own hand-made drawings into my designs. I believe creating images by hand helps to add more personality and my own unique style to the pieces. | |
