Assignment 4 -- Fine Art Techniques:
Locate a web site that clearly demonstrates at least TWO of the fine art techniques discussed in the Week 3 lecture and PDF notes (e.g. value, rhythm, cropping, synergy, movement, perspective etc.). If you don't know where to locate a web site, look on the Class Resources page for links to "Inspiration Web Design Sites." In your assignment, be specific about which fine art techniques are used (use SUBHEADINGS for each fine art technique you discuss) and explain how they help the design. Make sure you mention and describe every fine art technique you see on the site (if the site you choose has more than 2). You must supply a correct URL for the web site you select.
