You have learned a little about what graphic design is, and now it is time to create some! Choose an artist you like and admire. You can choose a classical artist whose work is centuries old or the illustrator of your favorite graphic novels. Imagine that you have been assigned to write a newspaper or magazine article about the artist and his or her work. You will need to do some online research and get basic information about the artist. Provide a bit of information about the following:
the artist’s background
the kind of work he or she does
when the artist created the art
what critics have thought of the artist’s work
what is distinctive about the artist’s style
Articles are generally pretty short, so limit your article to between 500 and 750 words. Provide a list of websites where you found your information.
