Owensboro Community & Technical College is adding two new graphic design courses beginning in August. They will be taught virtually.
The courses are ART 251 Graphic Communication and ART 252: Typography. Both online offerings will be taught by Joseph LoCicero, a Connecticut-based designer and educator.
ART 251: Graphic Communication I, is an introduction to basic graphic design techniques and the art of using graphics to communicate visually. ART 252: Typography is an introduction to the principles of typography, and the art of arranging and designing type to make written language appealing.
These courses are offered as credit toward the Associate in Fine Arts degree. No prior experience or prerequisites are necessary.
LoCicero specializes in print, collateral, and branding projects including advertising, book design, and educational marketing. He is currently an online instructor teaching graphic design at Kentucky Wesleyan College and branding at Bellevue University.
