Welcome to grpahic design my friend

SO!
What is graphic design!?
I think graphic design is the process of making art in many ways...then selling it! Not to hang on your wall however, but to communicate ideas and messages to other people. Prime examples of graphic design are billboards, street signs, brand labels, any pictures on your clothes in fact.

Graphic design is aboslutly everywhere...except in the middle of a desert, or the arctic...or in the middle of the amazon rain forest. BUT! everywhere else you can see someones image, or visual message plastered somewhere, trying to tell you to do something. And thats what i think graphic design is.
