Wix Website: About Page, Social Links, Homepage and Mobile View

-

As I have already changed the text in my About Page last week, I replaced the font type of 'ABOUT ME' to Lulo Clean at 25 px size, whereas the text of the paragraphs are Open Sans at size 16 px, for more emphasis. Then I have used the Change Image option on the stock photo to replace it with my portrait taken during class.

I have tested out the About page on the mobile view whilst still on the preview mode and while it was fine, with no major problems. I have, however, adjusted the paragraph size as it had looked quite thin compared to the page size.

On the other hand, the format for my Home page was broken, so I had to readjust the size of the header to 18 px and 9 px for title and subheading respectively. I had also edited the size of the catchphrase to fit into the screen.

I placed a social link bar that I have found in the 'Social' tab of 'Add Elements', then removed unnecessary social media icons. After linking the proper icons to my social media accounts, I have checked that these icons are formatted properly in mobile view. Finally, I have checked that the links are present in the footer for all pages and gives access to the proper social media.

I went on the the mobile view, which had already provided me with a Back to the top button present and moving with every page, and edited the location of the button so that it isn't located too high on the screen. As the Facebook icon was unnecessary, I deleted it. The button had worked properly on the preview mode for every page.

I removed the stock details listed on the Contact page. The form is linked to my email account through 'Form Settings' so that I can receive messages without exposing personal information. I further went on to delete a map section with a stock photo, which was also used for Home page, and changed the font of 'GET IN TOUCH' to Lulo Clean.

 I had a discussion with my tutor regarding the major project for sign off, and I was told to continue on the project. I was further told to research on topics related to my theme, such as logo and enamel pin designs in real life use from charities or companies, and to attend to an Abstract Art workshop in Week 5 as I had planned to use abstraction techniques in designing my work. The details of the sign off can be found in the link below. Link to Sign Off Sheet  I went on to fill the details of the Major Project Plan as required. The details can be found in the link below.

End Term 1: Reflection Post

-
With this term, I have tried out many different projects, of some I liked and some I hated. I had initially struggled in the beginning; I have never tried out photography or any related projects, however as I progressed, I believe I have gotten more efficient in researching for my works and analysing how to better attract the audience I am aiming form. However, I feel like I was poor with time management, therefore affecting the quality of my works. This class was quite stressful in some ways, pushing my limits and boundaries, however I feel like I improved in the end.

Further Artist Research: Fluid Art and Emma Lindström

Image
 Fluid art, also known as acrylic paint pouring and flow art, has been an art technique that has been rising in popularity due to its simplistic way of creating with  stunning result. It is made using acrylic paints, of which are usually soft body acrylics (thinner acrylic paints) or acrylic ink as they are already in liquid (or close to liquid) form, mixed to a pouring medium. Depending on the type of medium, it can create different effects such as having a layer of ‘coating’ or giving. A watercolour-like look. Pouring different pigments of acrylic pours give it interesting textures and patterns, making it one of techniques used in abstract art. As McGorlick-Appelman (2020) says, fluid art techniques are used to ‘ create gliding organic and hypnotic free flowing abstract compositions ’. Emma Lindström, n.d.,   AYIIHLA 2  More medium can be added onto the base mixture to create additional abstract patterns. Silicone oils can be added into the mixture or dropped on top of the work to cr
