Mexican Anyone? (Day 12)

Well if you are into the yard sale thing this is the place to be to help some people in need.

Elk Parking

I decided to try having a bit of fun with these last few blogs. I saw this sign for Elks Parking
and thought of an actual Elk.

Buyer's Market

In today's economy, a real estate sign has better use as a fence than as a advertisement. I guess they are looking for alternate forms of work as well.

Colisuem

Well this photo was taken not far from my previous two posts. It's like I'm following a trail of bread crumbs across campus, only the bread crumbs are monuments bearing commemorative metal placards.

These things make me wish I had a lot of money so that I could donate it to some institution that would build something big and subsequently embellish it with a metal plate bearing my name, thus immortalizing my legacy.

derrick williams (day 11)


i took this picture when i was going to play some b-ball and i just liked the composition and how the type on the left really fills the space to the lefts and everything draws the to the center. nothing really else to say...

Under Belly

I am not going to lie. I pretty bored with this assignment now and I find it kind of hard for me to go out to do this project. I was going to post another thing from my past, but really I don't want to do it. This post is about the Under Belly of Cedar City and the typography of a unspoken world. The last time I was here was about two years ago.

Visual Tension ( Devo: day 11)


Sorry, the picture is bad, it was after Art Insights. It was cold and dark, and I did not want to get out of the car. This sign has fine typography, but has bad visual tension. A good example of how layout of graphics around type, can effect the types effectiveness. The sign does not have a consistent white boarder around it. Were the embellishment is flush to the brick wall, and where the embellishment has a white boarder.... Creates an unwanted visual tension.
