Milton Glaser

I love this design and how the hair contains all the color.  The left side being white seems to balance out the dark background on the right side.  The hair is the focal point and adds depth to the piece while everything else looks flat.

design

I saw this image online one day and thought it was neat.  I like how the swirling circle on the bottom right corner draws your eye.  The circle adds rhythm to the design.  The top half is rather simple and is made up of geometric shapes.

Fish!

I found this image online and thought it fit in with our homework on focus and focal point a couple weeks back.  I like how the fish in the center is in color and grabs your attention.  I also think that the text below the colored fish fits the design very well.

something I found...

I was online one day and found this image.  At first I thought the image was random circles then after looking closer, i saw what looks to be a dog and a mans head.  I like the fact that you can read the design in different ways and see different images. I also like how the right half is complex and overlapping while the left half is simple.

Drips of Color

I found this design on the Internet and loved it. I like how the colors look to be dripping yet they don't run together.  The drips at the bottom had variation and depth to the design as well.

Quick Sketch


This is a sketch of a Sierra Mist soda can that I drew one day when I was really bored.  The lines around the text are very random and harsh, but act like a border to the image.

Big Red


I really like this ad because of how the product is the focus.  The only white used in the whole ad is for the text "big red". Everything in the background is dark, while the arm and the hand are in bright colors.  The figure nails blend into the gum because they are the same colors.  You can tell that Big Red is hot because of the red and yellow colors used to represent fire.
