About Me
Shaquiria Barnes I am Shaquiria Barnes (Shay for short) a unique creative graphic designer. I’m just starting out yet my work says the otherwise. I’m 18 and very easy to work with. I have a strong passion for art; that’s what I do best and very creative at. Of-course it’s not about the money when I love to do art. For all my clients and future clients I will go above and beyond to make sure you are 100% satisfied with what you are receiving. Anything I do for anyone will be high quality work and something you will love for years, may even be a great conversation piece. It maybe used as a great gift for any occasion.
I refer to my self as Da Magic Edits. Da Magic Edits being the name I use when I design a photo for someone. I chose this because to me art is magical and the skill I have in editing is really mind-blowing; I will go above and beyond to design a design for anyone and everyone no matter the difficulty. I can guarantee 100% satisfaction.
Kevin Gates Tour Poster This project was to show what we learned with the previous project of using different tools and changing the contrast and opacity and or just choosing the correct font to fit the poster and its form. I’ve gotten a picture of a Louisiana rapper known as Kevin Gates and made an artist poster using the principles of the design. I also used real dates according to his Instagram and Google dates. It’s well formatted, eye catching and easy to read and understand.
Graphic Design Tee This project was about making a shirt for SkillsUSA yet representing Graphic Design. I came up with a cool layout and design that looked cool and catches an eye.
This is the logo in color. It has this feel that all goes together. Personally the crown looks cool to me.
This is the logo in black and white. It has this look that all goes together like a styles of it’s own. Personally I think the crown gives it a nice touch.
Graphic Design Tee Redo
I’ve redone my graphic design t-shirt and gave it a more graffiti feel. It’s a tshirt I feel that fits this generation and many more.
Halloween Label
This a candy label that I design for halloween. I put it on a candy bag so that the viewer can get a better look at the label as a whole. I also put the label on top so that the viewer can get an idea.
Pen Exercise
This was a pen tool exercise to get to know pen tooling. It turned out perfect an exact replica. I had the details exactly as the pic had. The colors and color matching really put the picture together.
Deep Thoughts
This is a photo I created using my cellular device. It appears I have photoshopped the picture although it fits together as one piece. I’ve use three different sources.(The Person, The background, and the birds.)
Elements of Design
As all artist and graphic designer know the elements of design are important when creating a piece. Here I have shown the elements of design with photos I have taken and edited.
This is a logo I made in graphic design and will use for future purposes as a graphic designer. The 3D look gives it a neat and unique feel. Its also eye catching but not to distracting.
My Logo
Polynomia
This is a polygon project that I created of a baby lion. This was also a pen tool excise working with triangles only. After I created the lion in triangles, I found a background that fits the design and made it appear natural. Of course that means playing with the highlight shadows and midtones.
Kevin Gates Quote
This is a quote that Kevin Gates said. I put the photo of him on the quote to give credit without using the name as common as it is. I placed the quote to the right. I have bolded or design the key words that gave a message in the quote. I then added a texture and shape.
I ve made two different fun run posters just to see if a better outcome would come out. The name fun run gave me the logo idea for the first flyer of the figure running. The second was a flyer just to catch eyes and make viewers wonder what’s that.
This is the logo I made for the fun run flyer as a project. I put the logo on a flyer to give a complete feel along with the information I had.
Glow Run Poster and Logo
Branding
These are my logo on bags and different objects just to create and give me an idea of how it will look. I played the the blending modes and the opacity. Adding colors for different colors bags to choice from.
Female Bag
Male Bag
Da Magic Edits Shirt Design
This is my logo on a shirt in different colors. There’s not much to say about this particular photo. Just a shirt for my supporters and people who just like the design.
KUHS Tee
I designed a shirt for KUHS radio station as a project. I put both the logo and a gray and black shirt. The logo took some time to take as most do. The logo is creative as you might have seen the top of the microphone has the earth on it representing worldwide. The boombox represents music of all kinds.
This photo was me making a different style of art, but still working on portraits and skin tones.
Graphic Design Cartoon
Xxxtentaction Graphic Design Cartoon
This photo is another image I made with my cellular device. I used Jahseh because every artist learns to draw themselves before anyone else. As I have been drawing since the 2nd grade I’ve picked up many thing and study human features to put the human face
This photo is me working on skin tones, realism, and shapes. It turned out better than I thought although it was a little difficult getting the skin tones correct.

I edited this image with PicArt and created an image and tasked myself with keeping the drawn feel.
