Letter and Number Design-- Assignment Nov. 9, 2009
For this project I would like you to create a grid structure design using letters and numbers. Create a grid structure of your own design to work with as a consistent basic element of your overall composition. Use letters or numbers (that hold a meaning for you) as positive form, to work in and across individual unit grid cells. For this porject work with color and found images. Use letters and numbers to create words, sounds, or simply just an exciting design.

For this project you are expected to show:
1. Ability to work with photographic images with a clipping mask.
2. Ability to work with text as a vector graphic.
3. Ability to manipulate shapes with anchor points and the eraser tool.
4. Use of color that enhances the formal visual quality of your design.
5. A 2D compositional strenght in creating an overall exciting design, the design should be active in the sense of its entirety.

Please post results to your blog by next class and provide a brief description to accompany the post.
