This article helped me to understand how graphic design and visual communication and time are connected. To learn and to understand that a graphic design can have an effect on someone in an instant or over time is amazing. I never thought when i looked at a poster or advertisement on a bus and how quickly it would catch my attention or how i would look at a billboard or building design and take my time to look but looking back at the some of the things I’ve seen there is definitely a connection. This also connect to the typefaces used for these graphic pieces. Every typeface has a certain personality behind it and can definitely alter how a person views a graphic design. Some typeface can have a loud and aggressive personality and catch a person attention very quick, while some typefaces have more a quiet and smooth personality which can take some time to take in. This article was very informative and i enjoyed reading it!!

One question i would have for the author would be ” What advice would you have for someone who has an admiration for graphic design but may feel that they may not have the artistic or creative ability to be able to do graphic design”?. A possible answer may simply be ” You never know until you try, i believe everyone is born with an ability to be artistic and creative in different ways, its just a matter of taking the time to explore the type of style that you enjoy and have the most interest in and really take the time to study the works of other in that style as well as practicing that style as much as possible. “Most importantly of all be patient, you will fail before you succeed”.
