Online Artist #1: David Carson

David Carson is a professional graphic designer. He does a lot of work with different companies making various logo's from soda companies to car companies. I have researched about this artist and how this artist relates to me is that he likes to do grunge type of art. Not only he experiments with just one color, black, he likes to experiment with different colors for grunge. I feel that grunge should not have this black color theme. It should be various colors. I like to have typography in my work and I greatly care about the type of typography I have and I try to make it look nice by having nice font's. David Carson has a lot of great typography work. He does a great job of incorporating both the typography and graphic design aspect all into one picture and not make his piece look very difficult to look at or in different directions. To me he does not confuse the audience in his work. I have looked at most of his work and it all seems to fit perfectly into what he is trying to portray. When the design seems to be really wild his typography will be wild too.

What inspires me is that he is not afraid of bringing in different textures and colors to help what he is trying to say about his works. Also his simplicity is what really gets to me. He can bring all of these elements in to his pieces but he can keep it simple by not doing too much.
