Hello, my name is Adam Benton and I live in the town of Clacton On Sea in Essex. I am a graphic design student studying at Colchester School of Art and Design, which is part of Essex University and currently studying a BA (hons) Art and design, Graphic Media course, currently in my second year. This blog is for me to show my current works, and to show where I get my inspiration from as well as visual and contextual research.
PORTFOLIO: http://bentonafolio.tumblr.com/
Two books and a folder I made all myself. For more pictures and information see my portfolio page http://losymphonaportfolio.tumblr.com
I like the use of colour and the layout is intriguing. Very well thought out.

Self Promotion (First draft)
Here is the start of my self promotion I have been working on. There are some changes to be made to make it all look more like a family of design but i am pleased with how it all looks as of now. Saw some spelling errors in there as well but it will all be corrected soon i hope.
My course has started a Mentor Me program with the designers at 15 Queens Street (http://www.15queenstreet.org/) and I had to make something that represents me in some way. Since I enjoyed doing a broadsheet, I decided to do on as a mini portfolio on the works I have done on this course, and also a little bit about me as a person.
Really like how this looks. I feel that I have learned a lot about design and improved my skills.
