The term 'graphic design' can refer to a variety of artistic disciplines, all of which focus on communication through visual representation of an idea. Graphic designers assist in product promotion, business branding and marketing through the design of magazine pages, advertisements, product packaging and logos.
"For example, a product package might include a logo or other artwork, organized text and pure design elements such as shapes and color which unify the piece. Composition is one of the most important features of graphic design especially when utilizing pre-existing materials or using diverse elements. " (wikipedia-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_design)
The purpose of this site is to evaluate various designs for artistic merit and to recognize the artists who created them. Criteria used in analysis includes originality, representation of product, composition (layout, color, tone, line, shape) practicality and quality of graphics.
We will present selected artists on our "Artists" page and provide a link to their website, where visitors can access their portfolios. We find the art/artist ourselves and do not accept payment for promotion. We will gladly review any artist/company that is recommended for inclusion. To nominate a designer for review, simply use the "nominate" page.
