Purpose

The purpose of my original collection of graphics is to show my target audience what a

peanut butter and jelly sandwich looks like so they know what they will be making. My

original photographs showcase a real-time peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My scanned

image depicts how peanut butter and jelly sandwich can be an analogy for kindness. My

image created from the Apple Paintbrush program hopes to elicit a positive response about

the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My outside source picture helps to identify the main

tool that is used in making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Target Audience

The target audience for my graphics collection is anyone who wants to learn how to make a

peanut butter and jelly sandwich. My target audience is also anyone who simply enjoys peanut

butter and jelly sandwiches or cooking in general. My target audience is appropriate for my

graphics collection because my chosen graphics are beneficial to anyone interested in peanut

butter and jelly sandwiches.
