I really like the design that was created here. All the elements seem to connect to form a unified design. The brown background helps the colored paint spots stand out more, but is a cool design itself at the same time. I think the colored spots were done really well. It really looks like someone spilt or threw on some paint on a brown background but transparent to show the background style and design at the same time.
The USI Art Club text really fits well with the design. It looks like someone painted the words on the brown background. I also like how the USI letters are white to represent and show the abbreviated form of our schools name. The Art Club text is also nicely done. It keeps with the same paint style as the USI text and the paint spots but is separated from the other text so there wasn't cluttered together.
There was only a few small things I didnt like about the design. The first was the bigger yellow paint spots. It looked to 3d and didn't match the other paint spots on the design. I could be a representation of corn kernels but i doubt it was meant to. The other thing I didn't like, was the Art Club information text. I like how its white to keep with the same style as the other text, but it was hard to read in places.
Overall, I believe this is a great design for the USI Art Club website.

This was a cool idea for the USI's Art Club website. I liked the flower watermark in the background. It looked really good and connected the elements in the design together well. The design on the left is nicely done. I liked the how the flowers were designed like a silhouette with different colors that stood out on the black background.
I liked little design behind the U in the USI Art Club text. It added a different style to the design that worked well. I also liked the decision to use black text. It stands out well on the white background and is east to read.
There is only one small thing I didn't like about this design. It's a small thing but there should have been a hard enter (space) between the first and second paragraph. The text is too close to each other and is hard to read after awhile.
Overall, good design.
I really liked this design for the USI's Ar Club website. The paint tubes at the top were done really well. It ties in well with the art theme of webpage and the paint that's coming out of the tubes adds a special element to the design that I've never seen before. Not only does it really look like paint is coming out of the tubes, it also draws the eyes down to the main information in the middle of the page.
The USI Art Club text is also nicely done. It continues with the squeezed out paint theme and really looks like someone squeezed blue paint on and wrote the text. The blue color also stands out well on the black background. I thought the art supplies on either side of the main text was a good touch. Not only does it continue the art theme but it also fills up white space to complete and tie in the elements in the design.
The only thing I didn't like about the design, was the main text. I do like the choice of using white text so it stands out on the black background but it doesn't fit with the theme and style of the design. Everything element in the design, including the text, had some sort of artistic style. The main text just seems to plain to me.
I really liked this design and think it would work perfectly for USI's Art Club website.
