this book is really ironic and the image although does not necessarily relate to the title, the image is fun

this book has nice cool colors with matching font color that is very cute and free-a symbol of dance

Similarities: these book covers are all captivating and give the book a sense of character and individulaity. All these books have a color theme that is prominent throughout the image

The book is successful in capturing the book's main idea because the cute and bubbly illustration expresses the story of young love. In addition, it captures a very important scene in the book where simple quotations were said. In addition, the colors are very simple but also symbolize the changes that the characters go through throughout the story

The most challenging aspect of creating my logo design was finding a way to create a logo that could conform to the gay straight alliance's original ideas and logo of the rainbow and also incorporating my own version of the groups's message to others. In addition, transferring those ideas to the computer program was difficult because the effects were not as i imagined them to be and hard to create.

I overcame these challanges by attempting to merge my ideas into one simple image. Making the idea of the rainbow pominent in the logo, while also adding the hands on the side.

over break, I did not do anything productive because i felt like it was a time for break and relaxation. After finishing watching all my favorite shows on Netflix, I decided to do some homework and study. When it was Chinese New Year, I was hype cause my parents gave me money, then we had to go to a Buddhist temple. I also visited my grandma because she's old. However, on the weekends I attended SAT prep and it was horrible because i had to wake up super duper early to walk in the bitter cold to the school and stay there for the whole day.

One of my favorite logo, that I own is the coco cola label.The coco cola label is very well designed because of its distinct, vibrant colors and incorporation of letters. It is a simple logo, but it catches the eye and makes you remember the brand even if you've only seen it for one second. It is a combination logo so it has both elements of design and writing so it makes it easier for viewers to remember the logo and company.The logo is extremely classic and cultured and symbolizes an iconic brand of America






from the best logo list, I found this veterinarian logo especially interesting because it was very creative. At first glance, the viewers see an outline of a dog and rabbit with very simple colors and designs, bu as the viewer looks deeper, they see that the dog and rabbit has a cat included in between. This image is strong and powerful because it allows for viewers to imagine other animals that could be taken care of in this organization and make themself aware of the power of this company.

Reflection:
the most frustrating aspect of this project was trying to make sure that when editing one layer, the other does not change. Because I am not adjusted to new technology, it is hard for me to understand so many new concepts. In addition, creating certain lines and curves were hard because they never came out perfect. Therefore, my symbol was simple and straight to the point. After completing the project I felt that I was most confident with the eraser and paint brush tool because those were the most simple concepts that allows me to use my own gestures other than computer generated. I wish I was better at using the layers tool because it is important in creating fluent transitions and ultimately a good gif. If i were to use photoshop again, I would want to create a brand symbol that expresses myself and my label through the art piece. It would be fun and an expressive way and could be used in real life.

I am interested in Hannah Hoch because . Although her art does seem to be computer generated, it can be clearly distinguished that they are graphic designs. Her art really captures the eye because it uses minimal colors and recycled paper but they compliment each other so well that it evokes a sense of happiness. She incorporates everyday images that we see on magazines and newspaper that look so complete together. Her art existed during the Weimer period before Hitler was elected. During the Weimer peiod, Germany was technologically superior compared to other countries. Her art reflects the modern art that the advanced country lead to. Hoch impacted graphic design today because her art was not only a form of aesthetic appeal, but also it presented an idea of political opinion. THis reminds us that graphic design should express emotions and perspective of our emotions.

Something that inspires me...

    My visit to the rural side of China inspired me to think beyond what I knew living in New York CIty. It inspired me to realize how big the world is. Being without technology, I began to realize how people can spend time creating real impacts for others. Because I did not have the ability to use the internet, I was forced to find ways to entertain myself. I went outside to explore new animals plants, and experienced a new culture. I couldnt believe that I could survive at first, but I actually enjoyed it more than my urban lifestyle back at home. Despite the mosquito bits, humidity, and bugs, I was inspired by the beauty of nature.

1. To create my finished letter piece, I had to follow many specific steps and procedures. First, I set up the borders of the margins and focal point using straightedge objects. Next, I started sketching the boxes that formed the M with a pencil and ruler. Next, I outlined the sketch with dark black pen and also started creating the designs within the blocks. I created many curves and swirls incorporated throughout the entire "M" letter. After erasing the pencil marks, I began to add color to the designs; for the flame-looking swirls, I applied a bold red color and made sure that it was blended well so that the color would stand out. For the swirls I only applied color to the first layer of some of them because I did not want to take the attention away from the bold red color.Finally, I was done! This process was helpful because it allowed me to add on new concepts or ideas I wanted since I applied colors last.

2. I came to my concept because I wanted to create a mysterious mythological design of dragons. I wanted my drawing to have the beautiful repetitive patterns similar to that of a dragons skin. The firey swirls were an addition to the theme of ancient dragons that released flames.

3. The most challenging aspect of this project was incorporating concepts into my letter. It was hard to come up with an idea that could represent the design of my letter since I was more focused on patterns.

4. I am satisfied with the final result of my project because I was able to include both ideas of my drawing into one drawing. I admired how the design of the letter was very mesmerizing and bold.

5. If I could change my design in any way, I would have  created more sharper lines and edges by creating one straight line rather than putting individual squares together; that way the lines of the letter would be straighter.
