Mini Art School #1

Here is my first exercise!

Loosened Alignment Exercise

It is a screenshot so it should be 8x10! Try to visualize it like that!


For my second exercise I chose to review a past work and review it using this week's lessons.  Last semester I created an ePortfolio as a way to showcase my talents to potential employers on the internet.  Here is what it looks like before:

After reading through this week's readings, I believe I can improve the site by changing some of the fonts.  I would start by bolding my name as that is where I want readers' eyes to go first.  I also chose to change the tan background color.  It does not grab your attention.  I chose a bit of a brighter color. Here is the updated version:

  1. Hi Ashleigh, I think your ePortfoilo redesign looks great! I'm impressed at the amount of difference that making these subtle but crucial tweaks has made. The new font draws much more attention to your name, which is so important, since you are essentially marketing yourself through this site. The new background color also looks great, still somewhat neutral, but a bit brighter. Great job incorporating concepts from this week to your site's design update!
