Job listings research





 

 What interest me about design is taking multiple things that might not go together and then making them into one coearent piece. That is why I love Photoshop and Illustrator because I take photos of many different things and then make them into one piece that feels like it belongs together. That is what I did with my first Photoshop project. I like making design that speak to not only me but to other people who maybe looking at it a different why and getting a different message than I intend the first time I do a design.
