Essay about 5 Words

I chose; Candid, Facetious, Athletic, Artistic, and loud because those are the best 5 words to describe me. I created my own style, value, and color to identify each word and made each one differ from the others. Being able to recognize each word in their own scale, balance, variation, and proximity to create my own unified, and balanced design that visually communicates my personality through the 5 chosen words.
Candid, and Facetious were the first two words i chose. Candid; I made all capitals and was meant to standout with a shinny value making it to be very recognizable, and looked like a strong word to describe me the best. Facetious; i tried to use a goofy font and have a bend to it because I'm always laughing and fooling around which would describe me the second best.
My third and fourth choice was Athletic and Artistic. I chose the font style, and color for Athletic because the font looked like a sporty style something you would see in lacrosse and football my two favorite sports to play and watch. Giving the word a flow and wave to it to standout especially with the cool colors. Artistic i made real fancy and colorful because when i do art i try to use all the colors on the color wheel in a real fancy creative style making things stand out heavily to the viewers eyes. My last chosen word was Loud. When i hang with my best friends and family were always loud and noisy about everything. I made the style of Loud look like it was popping out and making the ears bleed, almost looks like a sound wave traveling across the paper which i thought was neat.
Overall i think i did a good job manipulating all 5 words together into describing myself into their own style, value, and color. I wouldn't really have done it any differently. It looks the best way to describe me plus it stands out the way it should in both creativity and style.
