Go Millennium High School Girl's Swim Team!
                                 
                 Hello everyone! The GIF above is one I made for my graphic design class. But, it is also a PSA for Millennium High School students to support the team. I joined the team in my sophomore year and I am extremely glad I did. Not only have I been getting a lot of physical exercise but I've made so many great friends with the girls on the team. It's truly an amazing experience. Special thanks to Coach Simms for helping us improve our times and turning us into mermaids! :D We've won three meets so far this season and we're aiming for more! Go Phoenix Swimmers!

Amazing graphic designers!



Jessica Walsh
  
    This graphic designer really caught my eye, plainly because her artwork is so very enjoyable to look at. It is interesting, clean, and colorful. Most of her designs also have a lot of meaning behind them, which goes with what graphic design is: enjoyable and meaningful. She uses a lot of realism.
This graphic design movement is so important because so much of today’s modern graphic design is intertwined with realism. Especially since the invention of photography it is so much easier to achieve realism in designs. With the advancements of computer software and animation, there is a lot of realism in modern day society. It makes everything so much more fun to look at and interpret. Jessica also uses Surrealism. This graphic design movement is the mixture of the real and the

unreal which brings surrealism. It is so very creative and interesting because there are so many possibilities of the designs that can be made. These can be made with animation, drawing, photography. But this one does not use much text.

Good Graphic Design

I saw this in a store as a birthday card or something. It's really creative and cute!  I think that's what the creator was hoping for!

Letter Design Project

This is my letter design project! Creating it was hard and easy at the same time.  It was relaxing because each small black pattern was unique and also brain racking. At times I had no idea what to draw.  Most of the project was very repetative. I started out by picking my letter and one of the my favorite letters is w. The reasoning behind this is that it can be drawn in so many different ways. to show this theme I drew representations of the letter in the organic shapes. If I were to do this project again I would challenge myself to create the whole letter out of representations of that letter.
