Abstract
The artist's statement: In my designs, I strive to create visual imagery and use typography to inform and describe the world around us in an imaginative and creative way. I strive to create designs that can be used as a universal language that is accessible and comprehensible for all while still using an innovative touch. My grandmother was an artist from Argentina, who showed me how to create imagery that can reflect a visual language that people from all walks of life can understand and be inspired by. Creating art with my grandmother taught me the invaluable meaning of creation as an expression of the self and understanding the world around me. Drawing and painting with her brought me to see that my passion for creative outlet would be fundamental for myself to view life in a completely creative way. This vision allows me to create unique work for anybody who requires an original and insightful message through the impact of my design. My work in graphic design aims to convey messages about the environment around us through creative visual imagery that includes bold colors and unique compositions that are inclusive for anybody to understand. My process for creating design starts where art began for me, through pencil and paper. I find my most valuable insights for design come by exploring all possibilities for an idea by drawing. Then I take my best ideas from my sketches and transform them through digital programs. Digitally my work can be accessible for clients to spread their message through my designs. Through the process of creating digital work, my designs can be made for anyone with any necessity for visual imagery and language to excite and inspire innovation.
