Lawn Art Website Design

For my lawn art website design, I decided on the "Crazy's Lawn Art: Evansville, IN Edition because people have some really crazy lawn art around their yards that felt looked good; for some reason. And since we were asked to take pictures of lawn art around Evansville, I decided to add the Evansville, IN Edition.

I tried to stay on the simple and clean side while designing this website. I first used the grass paint brush tool to make a lawn design that was simple and clean looking, but graphically nice looking. I then imported in a picture of a lawn gnome that I took that was in a neighbor's yard. I edited out the picture's background and remove the mushroom that the gnome was leaning on. I picked the lazy gnome because i liked the way it was laying and thought i could make it lean on a sign post that could be used as the menu navigator. I decided on the old wooden sign because I saw several similar signs while taking lawn art pictures around town and thought that would be a great design to use as the menu navigator. Each wooden board on the sign is a navigation button because it separates the links and continues the the simple and clean look. I decided to categorized each navigation button to make it easy to navigate and allow people to find specific pages or design easier.

On each page, that shows the lawn art pictures that I took, shows an edited version of the picture with a short description of the lawn art piece. Behind the short description, I added a transparent box to separate the text from the blue sky background. I edited the sign menu to make it smaller so it wouldn't dominate or draw attention from the lawn art piece. I also removed the lawn gnome because I felt it would cause the design to look busy.

That's my design. I hope you all like it.
