I designed my blog so that it would be easy to look at, pleasing to the eye. The fonts used are all easy to read and have a nice, rounded look to them.While these fonts are rather plain, I believe it helps to introduce my own simplistic and tidy personality. I tweaked the layout as well so that the Introduction box would not be a giant glare on the website but is still easy to see and pleasant to look at.
The colors in the background on my sight have a similar effect. According to an article on color psychology, "Pink is thought to have a calming effect" while the orange and red pops of color throughout add energy and stimulation. This creates a sort of warm buzz to the atmosphere. Another reason I chose this specific background is because it is, in fact, a watercolor painting, and, as I have mentioned in my introduction, I love painting and the arts. Not only does the background, along with the simple fonts, make the reader feel welcome, it also pulls that reader into my world.
