Website research

I have investigated a variety of websites in which I will list some attributes and functionality for what I would like my own website to have.

Advantages
I have looked at Sara Fanellie's website which I found is set up differently to any other website I have seen before. I like the layout in which, it shows key titles on the page convincing her audience to want to explore more by clicking onto one of them. Which takes you to a list or link to showing her work that she has produced for books or her portfolio. This also makes her website tidy and organised not leaving it in such a chaos that the audience cant concentrate on the key elements, making it easier to take in the information. I also find this layout simple yet vintage.

Another artist's website I wish to add the key features and explore the layout she has used throughout my own website is a freelance illustrator Anna Violet. I found the way she has layout her website is very effective throughout the vibrant colours represented throughout her name which stands out on the black background giving it a sense of sophistication.

Another website I thought was quite intriguing is by an artist called Gemma Correl I love the first page to her website its playful and unique in its own style.

Disadvantages
Artist Megan Lara has created a very eye-catching website that does make you want to explore her work more, however I find it hard to find information of who she is and how to contact her which could be improved throughout her website very easily if she so wished, as this is her only downfall.

Another artist I have come across is of a designer called Joshua Ariza, I find his website very plain and could be represented better with the use of more imagery and trying to not put too much information that portrayed on all the same page. I find his slogan great as I am reeled in to know more. But am slightly confused as to where I should start to look to find out more of his work.

Overall I hope to produce a good website that gets audiences a spine-tingling feeling in wanting to explore my world of inventive play throughout my work. Hoping to represent myself in a sophisticated professional fashion.
