Graphic Design
Graphic Design – like any form of Art – always starts with an idea… a vision… or an inner drive to create. To be and stay within a continuous state of amazement, enthusiasm and passion to create we need to find ways that provide us with a constant flow of inspiration for our boundless Imagination.
“Determination” by Bianca Gubalke (Detail)
One of my personal preferred methods is… digital photography. I am very happy with my new Nikon Coolpix P90 that fits perfectly into my hand and that will be my best friend once I’m beyond the testing phase.
Graphic Design
Graphic Design can start with a simple walk on the beach… capturing a moment that touches or impresses us… as was my case here – it’s only an excerpt… but it’s one that lead to more… and going for ‘more’ is what this is all about!

Noordhoek Art
Based on the above picture on Noordhoek Beach a few days ago, I created quite an elaborated Artwork earlier called “Determination” – HERE (small version of the original Design on Noordhoek Art) where I integrated various Photoshop filters and experimented with new Grunge Fonts and Grunge Brushes.
Following a request, I include a details for better viewing at the top.
Grunge Design
A Grunge Design based on the same photo (another excerpt), is visible HERE.
Grunge Design is great Fun as it’s liberating as was the so-called “Arte Povera” back in the 70’s. Although it looks simple, don’t let the ‘freedom’ blind you as here it’s even more complex to get the harmonies right – be it those of colour, space or volume.
