  1. Hey Tim - nice to see the blog up and running. WOuld like to see your roughs and finals uploaded!
    For your letters:
    only ½ the designs were in on time?
    Designs 1 – value – use of repetition is great and the change in size works well But the 2nd one although different does not say value – where are the grays
    Design 2 – shape – blew it up – the first shape is great because you have change the letter from line into shape – good use of negative space – black pops forward. The arrow moves through he piece be careful of your corners.
    Design 3 – pattern Not s successful as the others because they are contained within the space excellent
    Design 4 size - the t in the center is very obvious and I think you could have come up with a more playful descriptions the Turned R is the same as the shape -
    Design 5 direction – these are pretty much saying the same one up one back? but I feel you could use a bit more variety in your application
    Design 6 line the curved outline is great – but cutting off the corner does not work but I feel the double outline is more and implied shape
