The History of Barber

The graphic approach I took with this piece is just a mirror of the trade I practice everyday. The history of the barber poster convey a simple design with supporting information about the trade. The poster gives information about the ancient trade with example of fresh well done hair done by me, one of the best feature about this piece is the scissor with characters I made that is depicted to be a customer in the chair on the left side of the tool and the barber on the opposite of the scissor. This piece is directed to the demographic of males that are in need of a barber to enhance their appearance by getting a haircut, the trade of barber overtime has became an art I personally see it as a subtractive art just like people who make scultures. This piece is not really reader friendly it actually take a different approach to comprehending the art of being a barber. The poster creates balance and also flow there not to many feature that are repeated but viewer get the idea of this piece is about the history of the barber. The color also play a huge role in this design to the the significant meanings to the color Blue, red , and white.Red represented blood and white, the bandages. Another interpretation says red and blue respectively stood for arterial and venous blood, and white was for the bandages. The rule of third is emphasis in this piece with a balance of alignment that lets the viewer know the order in which to read the art.
