Design in Today's World

First of all, i just would like to point out that i was very impressed by the presentation on Tuesday and thought that the designs and paintings i was shown that day were not only extremly impressive, but also creative. Her ability to combine different techniques along with common styles of painting and art really brought life to her work. I think digital design is important simply due to the fact that it is the opposite of print, it is the ability to show someone a picture rather then use imagery and description through text to paint a picture. Design is also important because the logos and pictures that we create or look at happen to be the first thing that customers or an audience will notice. The use of color, shape, technique, even size all play a factor into the success and quality of digital and/or graphic design. Compared to text, the power of writing is shocking. The ability to take any sentence and as a writer, create emotional stir or controversy personally speaking is alot more impressive then a drawing. Text shows knowledge, passion, emotion, and countless other descriptive terms as opposed to a picture, as a writer you can create whatever you want on a piece of paper and choose how you want people to feel or react to your words. As a design artist, i feel as though they have no control over the outcome of their overall message of their work
