Font Poem

Art washes from the soul the dust of everyday life…

Pablo Picasso

For my font poem I choose to have a quote from Pablo Picasso because he is one of my favorite artist. I feel his quote is strong and says a lot about the type of artist he was. I do believe that art does come from the soul of everyday life and it washes over you when you don’t even notice it. Art is a very powerful thing and it is in our everyday lives. Everything we do is art; from our body movement to how we speak. It is the soul the dust of everyday life.

The fonts that I choose for displaying this quote were Ozwald, Serif Gothic, Smaragd Lt, Olympian, Parisian, Perpetua, Prestige, Revue. This took me a lot of time to pick out each type of font because I wanted to make sure that each one was the right fit for each word. I arranged the words the way I did because I thought it look clean and classic. I didn’t want to have too much one the page, but I also added color to make the words pop. At first finding how to use color was hard. I got so confused and couldn’t figure out how to select a certain color. After playing around with all the tools I finally figure out how to put color onto the page.

I never thought I would enjoy doing this assignment. It actually was a lot of fun and I learned a lot about different kinds of fonts and how to arrange them in unique ways.
