Design Project 1

Here is my designs replicated from the photo on the far left. I intentionally switched back and forth with the way the black and white colors is shown and adding details to three of the designs. The types of media I used were watercolor paint, ink pens (Micron), black construction paper and tissue.

Response to Notan Article

In the article about the creation of Notan, it talks about what we use to create something else, and then, we imagine what it doesn't appear to be.

Example:
 - We put a wooden square and four wooden pegs together to make a table, but it is on space where there's nothing for the use of a table that depends.

Reflection of My Walk Experience

My Reflection of my Walk Experience

Along the way to back from the PATCO train station, I caught a glimpse of some interesting little designs. They look to me almost like Victorian style. Some of the pictures I took looked pretty simple as others were a bit more complicated, but they all fascinated me. Also, there was one that kind of looked like a pattern on any piece or garment or accessories.

"The arts are called 'creative' fields because there are no predetermined correct answers to the  problems" (pg. 4 Design Defined)

Design is basically a way to say "plan". It is not that something just happened. Whatever it is, it's just planned. Every worker plans, but it the artist or designer that creates it. There is most likely a plan to solve any kind of problem. This is known as a design process. In a creative way, you would likely need a visual solution, although there are many ways whether it's wide or narrow. There is no need of rules on how to do it, but there are guidelines.
