ART SHOW "Past Quilt"


This artwork was a physical representation of my past. There are alot of reasons why I chose to do some of the things i did. Me blowing smoke with the words "future? none" symoblizes that doing what I was doing was blowing my future away.The image of me seemingly floating a frozen key represents that no matter how close i am, unless there is change i cannot move forward. Lastly, the reason for the smoke background metaphorically says that my past was up in smoke.

Graduation Program

The biggest strength of my design is not trying to do too much. There aren't any distracting factors or irrelevant objects. The thing i could fix is choose a font that is still elegant, yet bolder at the same time. I really had no expectations of graphic design. The most important thing of graphic design is the purpose. This changes your possibilities and ideas. This is why graphic design is capable and used to attract and manipulate people.

Alternate Program: Academic Letter Si Se Puede



Things I thought I did well on my "Si Se Puede" program was having a strong layout. There weren't any components fighting for power or attention. I think that the color could have been brighter in some places to make some things easier to read. The thing I struggled with is caring about it since I hate the class. I did better on the "Si Se Puede"because there are details I didn't take out of the "Academic Excellence".
