Begin with this content: the standard test message “Hello, world.” Design the message in Google Drawing. Experiment with every option in this minimal software for giving graphic form to this generic salutation. Use type and shapes, any form except an image.

By the end of this process, the real “content” of your drawing should become its technical medium itself, the software you used to produce it. Imagine you are saying hello to the world of graphic design. As you make this introduction, aim to show the technical universe, the peculiar structuring mechanisms of the medium. See if you can explore all the possibilities for form in this particular tool. The sentence should be legible.

Produce three significantly different “drawings.” Say “nothing,” in order to explore and reveal the universe of constraints (and possibilities) that reside within a simple software. Export your images as a jpgs and print each on a letter sized sheet.
