Need:
Develop a brand new portfolio site reflecting the minimalist aesthetic of this contemporary landscape painter. Brian needed a lean design that let his work take center stage and could evolve with his paintings.
Solution:
An energetic opening Flash movie conveys the dynamicism of the work and its’ shape, while series of simple muted background tones reflects the color pallet of the current paintings. Through CSS the colors can be easily changed with very little expense as Brian develops new series. Graphically the design is utilitarian letting the eye move easily to the content of the work. This site is now in its’ second version.
