Graphic design is the Soul of Art

Graphic design seemed to have become the soul of a part of me besides music. Development of expertise also then be upgraded because they do not want to miss with the development of the world today. All this in a self-taught learning, and practice the tutorials a result of browsing on the Internet. Basically graphic design is a form of visual communication using images to convey information or messages conveyed in the form as effectively as possible. Not only the form of text images are also considered to be an image because it is a result of abstraction of symbols that can be sounded.

Graphic design is applied in communication design and fine art. Like other types of design, graphic design can refer to the process of manufacture, design methods, the resulting product (design), or any discipline that is used (design).
Scope Art graphic design include cognitive skills and visual skills, including typography, illustration, photography, image processing, and layout. This element of the same graphic design as a basic element in the other design disciplines. These elements (including shape, shape (form), texture, line, space, and color) form the basic principles of visual design. These principles, such as equilibrium (balance), rhythm (rhythm), stress (emphasis), the proportion ("Proportion") and unity (unity), then form a structural aspect of a larger composition.

All applications that we can combine to produce a work of art from the science of Graphic Design. I think only one capital that must be held to be a reliable designer that is the Soul of Art. There are some smart people who use the Application of Graphic Design but not necessarily he also can produce works that Good, Beautiful, and can be enjoyed by all walks of life. It is very necessary for us to understand the meaning of aesthetics as a part that is not released from the art of graphic design. Aesthetics is a science which deals beauty, how she could be formed, and how someone could feel it. By involving the philosophy of art in itself which studies sensory values which is strongly associated with the sentiment and taste. So aimlessly a beautiful work.

Although initially considered something beautiful from the technical aspect in shaping a masterpiece, but a change in the mindset of society will also influence the assessment of beauty. For example, at the time of romanticism in France, beauty is the ability to present a grandeur. At the time of realism, beauty means the ability to present something in a state of what it is. During the rise of de Stijl in the Netherlands, means the ability to compose beautiful color and space and the ability to abstract objects.

The concept of the beauty and the ugly
Further developments to realize that beauty does not always have a certain formula. He developed according to community acceptance of the idea raised by the maker's work. Because that's always been known for two things in the assessment of beauty, that is the beauty, a work that was recognized by many standards of beauty and the ugly, a work that did not meet the standards of beauty and by the public are generally considered bad, but if viewed from many it turned out to show the beauty.

By learning a few things above, harmless to the graphic design experts start thinking about the importance of a sense of art in design. The closest thing to me right now is webdesain. Although this has not been too maximal webblog for the layout design matters. But I always try to create beauty from the point of view of others, because those who judge and comfort when we start communicating our intent in graphic form.
