Post #1: What is Graphic Design?

Graphic Design is the combination between text and images that can be made just for fun or more for serious things such as advertising, magazines, books, etc.

Throughout this semester during Graphic Design, I hope to learn more about the art and skill of Graphic Design, becoming more creative with my ideas and going more in depth with it.

Graphic Design can be found in your every day life -- in social media, t-shirts, company logos, etc.

Some designs that influence me the most would be ones that really pop out at you and make you think, such as the example below. If they just him playing tennis, with no colors or nothing around it, it wouldn't make people stop and look.

Another design that influences me, would be this one that Caleb Bol did for a t-shirt logo. Brings me right back at home :)
