I love simplicity of these websites.

Hi Brian! Great job! Its very simple, but the use of color makes it pop. Your fonts chosen work very well for the modern feel I am assuming you are going for. The first one.. Did you mess with the RGB in photoshop on your photo? Looks like it needs a white balance, video term. Use your original photo without that, and you are good. I liked the photo clipped out of the background. Looks more professional. But lose that weird red color on it

Love the first one, great photo, Very striking image and with the single pop of color, it looks great! Also, I agree with Rachel, the image needs a bit adjusting. Good job, can't wait to see it up and running!

I love the second one. Its is simple, "easy to look". Awesome logo!
I think you it will be better if also put "full color" picture of you on the first layout.

Hey Brian-
I love the roughs that you did! When I look at the first one I can see that if you tinted your face the same color as your text bar or the other way around it would create this amazing magnetic force that would be as great as….Peanut butter and Jelly! I love the composition and I think that you should most defiantly go with the first one.

i like what you did with the websites but on the first image you need to mask it better it looks reallyyyy cut out unless thats the look your going for then thats ok. i think just using the full picture not in duotone would be fine though on either compasition

Hi Brian - I'm really drawn to the logo in your second design, and the b/w photo in your first. I'd like to see the two combined, and I'd shrink down the picture of yourself so that it doesn't compete for dominance. I'd like to see your design tie in the colors you used in your logo elsewhere on the page. You have some good elements to work with here.

Hey Brian, cropping the photo was a great idea. Your logo is really cool, I would like to see it in the first design. also you should include one of your awesome drawings just to show your skills right off the bat

Great sites, Brian.

I agree with a few of the others, the first concept is great, but the duotone photo needs a little more help. I would also like to see your logo on the first concept.

Hi Brain,

Cool roughs! In the first layout I like the background color used I also like the background color used for the links. My eyes goes straight your image but instead of using that color, just use the original image with its color. I also like the second layout because of the logo, its the vocal point. Maybe you can try to add the logo on the first layout. But for me personally I like the first one.
