Note Logo




For this last project, we did a little bit of deep down exploration of ourselves. We though deep down about who we are and who we will become. I took that information and I compounded it into a logo that describes me. I started out with a few ideas that weren’t going anywhere, so I cut them. Here they are.







I knew I want to go down the music path, so I tried to incorporate that. The result is a sleek, sharp, music note. I chose the color black for my fill because it represents sophistication and elegance. 



When making this I took my music note sketch



and tried to recreate it with the paint brush tool. But the paintbrush wasn’t giving me the thin, sharp, pointed edges that I wanted. So I used the pen tool. I manipulated lines and their curves, and that is was gave me my sharpness. 



I got my finished product, but I didn’t like It. And I knew I had to LOVE it. So I messed with it. I filled the center. I colored it pink. I put my signature on it, around it. Everything you could possibly imagine was done to this poor little music note. I finally decided on this design.

And believe me, I love it.

I wouldn’t go back and change anything.

We’ve all seen this before. If you haven’t, you’ve been living under a graphic design rock. One of Andy Warhol’s most famous works, his portrait of Marilyn Monroe, is recognizable to anyone, just because of how famous the artist was. Using a publicity shot of Marilyn, Warhol created a few works through a silk screening process. He made the original, Marilyn , and then Marilyn Diptych , symbolizing the iconic woman’s death. In my own little way, I tried to create my own Andy-Warhol-based portraits of Hayley Willams, Gwen Stefani, Cara Delevingne, and Lady Gaga.  Following a basic color scheme, I created Pop Art Portraits

What is Graphic Design?!?

What is Graphic Design?!? Graphic Design: Google(the best website in the whole world) puts it simply as the art or skill of combining text and pictures in advertisements, magazines, or books. Most GD conveys an image, a message, a language. However GOOD GD makes peoples lives better!! It’s a language for the living. It can be quirky! Or ugly! Or beautiful! Whatever it needs to be. And most of all, Graphic Design is simply dong what is right, not what the survey s ays.  Only Graphic Design is like Graphic Design.
