It may be said that all these disciplines should be familiar to a designer; yet while this is very true, it may also confuse the definition of a designer as a visual communication specialist. http://dyangochavez.blogspot.com/2007/03/what-is-graphic-designer-anyway.html http://dyangochavez.blogspot.com/2007/03/what-is-graphic-designer-anyway.html email@dyangochavez.com (Dyango Chavez Cutino) I created these postcards using a combination of graphic design, photography, and poetry.

A color can be warm, cold, serious, professional, humorous, energizing, vibrant, powerful, solemn, easy, refreshing, active or another number of adjectives. Your audience, meaning the people who will buy your products or services, can be attracted, or repelled, by the color your business wears. http://dyangochavez.blogspot.com/2007/03/my-wifes-favorite-color.html http://dyangochavez.blogspot.com/2007/03/my-wifes-favorite-color.html email@dyangochavez.com (Dyango Chavez Cutino) The Cuban Prografica Committee is a non profitable organization that works to promote the cultural values of Graphic Design, sponsored by the National Plastic Arts Council of the Ministry of Culture of Cuba.
