Pencil Project

     Creating these pencil designs has really opened my eyes to the type of style I have. I realized that during this creative process I started off with a simple design and started to change that specific pencil and it's colors in order to get my new creative pencil visual going. The picture that I added to my new pencil was a piece of paper. I wanted to symbolize what is shown in a classroom so I created a piece of paper and in that same picture I added my new pencil with my new can. My new pencil was a mechanical pencil and as for the color theme I wanted to add a new pattern that would blend in well with my can. For my new creative piece I created christmas ornaments. For this creative piece I used different shapes and added different patterns on it. I realized that the borders were very thin so I made the stroke 3 points. My 3 biggest take aways were being able to make each shape and combine it to make a pencil, adding patterns to each shape rather than a simple color, and being able to use the outline setting, the ruler, and the smart guide.

What is Graphic Design?

      There are many personal connections that I can make to Graphic Design, this including creativity and expressing yourself. Through this I can find my type of style while creating something. Another connection that I can make with Graphic Design is being able to find who I am and my beliefs. Through the whole creative, and design process I can find my sense of style like I had mentioned before. The last connection I can make with Graphic Design is how we can both change the world. You see Graphic Design everywhere but not many people realize it. Like Graphic Design we can do many things to change the world but most of the time they go by unnoticed.
