This is a very simple and elegant portfolio site featuring
works of British illustrator Ian Francis. The visual aesthetic of this site is reminiscent
to a gallery setting: white background and small san serif gray font.The design is clean and it doesn’t takes away the attention from the paintings. The website also provides user friendly experience with intuitive navigation .
The only thing that would help this website to look even
more professional is changing the font or color of the header, or maybe turning it into an interesting (but simple) looking
logo.
Pros:
-The main menu is straight forward, it stays the same on
every page.
-There are different ways to navigate through the
gallery. You can click on an image and it will take you to the next one.
-The navigation bar in the top right corner is also very handy. It allows you to go back and forth between images, make them larger/fullscreen .

Cons:
-I am missing is the navigation using keyboard arrow keys (would be very convenient when using a desktop computer)
-The slideshow doesn’t work in fullscreen mode.
-The website has exactly the same layout on android devices, which preserves the design
but the navigation becomes very cumbersome
