M6 Website - JWS.com



                 For the website project, I found myself spinning between ideas, but concerned about advertising or promoting anything already copyrighted, that I was interested in. Ultimately, I chose the safest though not necessarily the easiest path, I decided to advertise myself.
                This website mock-up is or JWS.com (using my initials), a website that would be dedicated to explaining my artistic goals, exposing my artwork, providing a method for contact, and a section to order consigned original artwork. The majority of the images used are my original artwork, with the remainder (the web specific ones) taken from Pixabay.com.
                Besides the obvious links provided, the bottom of the site would act like a scrolling bar allowing users to choose the background picture for the site, while scrolling through select pictures from the portfolio section. The main logo for the site is my personal signature for originals I create. I drew up a large copy of my artistic signature, scanned it, cropped and erased around it, then when I applied it, I painted it darker on the webpage.

                I think this site would be effective as it has very little to distract the user from the focus of the site – my artwork. There would be easy access to viewing the work (using the image scroll bar on the bottom) thus a potential viewer could quickly decide if they were interested and whether they wanted to delve into my portfolio and/or request a consignment piece from me.
