Graphic Design

         Graphic design is the art or skill of combining text and pictures in logos, magazines, books, etc.  The point of adding graphics is to portray a message to the reader or consumer.  In order to create the perfect design you need to put yourself in the shoes of the consumer. The color is very important when it comes to connecting your topic to the design.  Graphic design is about discovering new ideas and coming up with new designs for your product. It's very helpful to color coordinate the color of what your logo or image may be to what is being sold or consumed.  That's important because if you were to design a logo for a lawn mowing company, you wouldn't make a pink logo with swirl designs because that doesn't make any connection to people that you are providing a lawn mowing service.  Instead, you would maybe make a sharp looking green logo because green stands for nature in the world of logo colors.  There is much more to graphic design than just these things, a big part is being able to have some imagination and creativity. This is what makes graphic design, "Graphic Design".
