My current plans for the content of my double page spread to create in the InDesign programme. Wording and images may be changed along the way of the design process, determined by the layout that I choose for my article, along with scale of images, composition, etc...
Beth Yates is a twenty-year old designer, and lives in the Yorkshire city of Bradford.Studying art and design from an early age, she has, in more recent years, found a home in the field of graphic design- with bright, cheerful and exuberant illustrations her cheery disposition bursts through- making addictively uplifting and creative designs that never fail to raise a smile.
But that’s enough from me, It’s time to hear what makes Beth, well...Beth- and how she has burrowed her way into the fast-paced and energetic practice of contemporary graphic design...

Ever since I was small, I've been drawing and making things. I remember my first pair of scissors were bright yellow and shaped like a clown. I think the first time I really consciously got into drawing was around the age of 10. I really wanted some posters of my favourite Pokémon so decided to draw them myself. Ever since I was hooked. I also became fascinated with video game concept art. I'd make up my own characters and constantly strived to improve my drawing technique, making things just so I could decorate my walls.
I knew from starting high school that I wanted to study graphics at GCSE, and my love of the subject has grown since. Although my main passions are image based design and pattern, my time at university has given me a new appreciation for typography. It has also opened my eyes to the vast application of Graphic design and has inspired me to really push the development of my work. Most importantly however it has allowed me to have fun – nothing is worth doing if you don't enjoy doing it.

A selection of pages from Beth’s current hot dog fold book crafts project- inspired by the number ‘3’, Beth went on to hand-render the illustrative book, focusing on layout, composition and form- each book created in its own eye-catchingly bright colour.
