ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Graphic arts

Graphic arts are like coloring, but for grown-ups. Just like how you like to color pictures in your coloring book, graphic artists like to create and design pictures using different tools. They use computers, special programs, and sometimes even their hands to make pictures that look really cool.

Think of it like building with blocks, but instead of using blocks, graphic artists use lines, shapes, colors, and textures. They make all kinds of things like logos, posters, books, websites, and even movies.

Just like how you have to know which colors go well together when you color, graphic artists need to have a good sense of color and design. They also need to know how to use their tools to make sure the pictures come out just right.

Graphic art is really fun because you get to use your creativity to make something new and exciting. And just like how you feel proud of the pictures you color, graphic artists feel proud of the things they create too.
