Design Class

My goal for the longest time was to take a design class.  I just started an eight week course called "Understanding the Design Process".  It is basically a beginners class in graphic, web and multimedia design.  I am learning the theory and elements of design along with the type of computer applications that are in popular use, such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe InDesign.   These applications are expensive but it is nice to know there are other options, like using the student rate, rent by the month, or download a free 30 day trial.  This way you can practice and explore before investing in such a product.

Below is a logo I made in Adobe InDesign.  I highly recommend the 30 day trial.  Photoshop can be a lot of fun!   www.adobe.com/downloads

Hand prints

I saw something similar at Michael's craft store.  I liked the look of the black and white and I always love my kiddos hand prints :)
