The Power of Graphic Designers

-
We live in a world of technology and with that technology has come a lifestyle that has been surrounded by graphic designs. Life on the web is all about the graphic design of the content that is placed on the net everyday. Every piece of new content that comes on the web everyday comes with some form of graphic design to entice the presentation of that new information.

It does not stop on the web though. Think about the books you read the simple covers and pictures that are there to help tell the story. The comic books that tell stories in complete graphic presentations. The movies we watch or the TV shows. Even the newspapers present their articles with some sort of graphic design no matter how simple it may be it’s there to help catch the eye and increase the value of what you are looking at or reading at that moment.
The work of graphic designers is used everywhere. From the simplest of road signs to the ATM’s at banks they all have some sort of graphic to get your attention. We use graphic design to teach our kids in schools. Graphics are one of the earliest teaching tools used for kids with shapes and colors being portrayed in school books all over the world.
Imagine a commercial with simply a voice trying to sell you a product with no picture, no graphic just a voice to describe and tell you why you need that product. Would not be a big seller. Imagine the Coca Cola brand without the red and white design or Nike without their trademark swoosh. There is true power in graphic design, power to move people in a way that makes them somehow feel connected to a product just based on the way it looks. 

Some of the true artist of today are those people that are creating graphics for products and companies around the world. Most if not all of these artist may never get the credit they deserve like the artist of the past like a Picasso or a DaVinci but they are artist the artist that are helping to shape our society and how we see it today.

A note of appreciation

Of the handful of things that God has had strewn upon His creation is the stillness of the last moments before the end. The end of waiting. Throughout my life, I've learned that it's these last couple of measures of time that snap their fingers at the ribbon-making machine in the skies and, just like that - in your hands - you find a very suitable, customisable length of ribbon, to wrap everything up in. It's not about the bow, or whether everything  is in a box or in a senseless clump of clutter, it's these moments, these moments before the very end where and when you're dealt the ribbon - your specifically designated ribbon to wrap everything up in; these very last moments before the end of something when everything is just there and you're wrapping it up. It’s when you are one step closer, your prayers are about to be answered, your turning point. Shout out, to those who believed in me, to their endless support, their prayers and keeping me motivated, ch...

One Fine Evening

One Fine Evening Swirling autumn leaves of oranges, red and gold. A month of beauty that’s easy to be hold. With late dawns, and early nights. Month of crimson sunsets, and parting birds. An oath has been taken, to be transparent and sincere. Nothing to be hidden, but respect was clear. Long talks and late nights. Revealed souls and dreams. Unfold stories, without critiques. Like north and south poles, pull like magnets. Magnets can't attract, when they're far apart. But we’re always together, inside our hearts. Before what happened happened. Uncertain and confused. Shattered hearts. Decisive decisions. Nothing in hands. Love thwarted, by an unknown long wait. Let me step into the shoes of my own life, it's the fatalism in me once again. Let me sow love, I know that what I feel is not lure. It's the most magical feeling I've ever known. - Nesma Attiatalla Swirling autumn leaves of oranges, red and gold.
