On To Design Principles

Currently Reading: Chapter 26 & 27 of Language of Graphic Design | Graphic Design Principles Index

So I'm done with LoGD, and now on to Design Principles. I decided to postpone my typography lessons and the grid chapter was uber short.  Unfortntely now there ere is just one small problem, I can't find a good book that doesn't cost a fortune. I'm still waiting for my thrifty books  purchase because I really want to get a good crack at Visual Communications. So instead right now I'm using the graphic design principles tutorial from Duke University, which is a good susbitute right now.

As why there are gaps in my study days, well, I have barely have energy to actually do my household chores, I just fall alseep after five hours of being up. Getting up athe butt crack of dawn has put a huge crimp in my energy reserves.

Patterns and The Beginning Of Typography

Currently Reading: Chapter 24 and half of 25 of Language of Graphic Design.

Hey I'm back! I had to skip out on Friday because I was feeling under the weather. I'm just currently getting back up to speed with my studying. The pattern chapter was very short, but the typography chapter was WAY over my head. I'm thinking of just skipping it and go back further indepth in the subject later.

So a friend of mine, on a form I frequent told me it was hard to get into the industry without a bachelor's degree, but I already know what field I want to specialize and I'm pretty sure that self-published authors give a sodding hell about degree, and more what's in your portfolio. I plan to be like gingerhaze and get fandom to propel myself to success. Moma didn't raise no chump after all. I'm bound and determined to get into this industry and I rather be working freelance anyway/
