When I was growing up my mother had a framed series of trading cards of the journalist, adventurist, and proto-feminist Nellie Bly hanging in her dressing room. These images of a Victorian-era woman, trimly dressed in a traveling coat and hat exhibiting feats of daring-do fascinated me. The cards depicted her interviewing the moon, riding a fly like a skateboard, biking along a ring of Saturn, all the while maintaining an image of confident determination.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
