This is a screenshot of Hazy's (Natalia Muñoz's) blog, http://haziestdinosaur.blogspot.com/ :
And MY reaction when I visited it for the first time, was
Yes, I turned into a pear, and my eyes and nose were gone.
Some information to introduce:
- It's called "COLORFUL dinosaurs"
- So far, she's posted 7 entries since march 31st, 2010.
My reaction has a lot to do with the colours and the fonts she used to design her blog's display.
I know she likes dinosaurs and I know she likes bright colors. I don't really have anything against dinosaurs, but I'm more of a dark person, or at least less shiny, so the contrast between the black backround and the colorful letters made me feel transported to a retro kind of place.
It's not a bad feeling, but I WAS a bit shocked. In a nice way, I respect her style.
I wouldn't recommend any changes on the design because I think she has it going her way and that's a good thing.
Although I might change the text font. To make it a bit easier to read, because the one she's using (I don't remember its exact name) is too condensed and confuses the eye (of mine).
Speaking of her blog, I specially liked that entry where she talked about her cellphone--because I thought it was the cutest story with the happiest ending ever~ and also the one where she talked about Laura Vresky, mainly because I felt that Laura's work is a lot like Hazy, like I could easily think the pictures she posted could have been designs of her own. It made a familiar image to me, it felt nice.
About her english, I don't think she's far from right in pretty much everything. There are some tiny little details that she could fix, but not essential issues. She could perfectly communicate with a native speaker and not sound spanglish at all.
I say way to go, Hazy!~

it's quite hard for me to read her blog, but it's funny to open the page and see all the colors that are there

ReplyDeleteomg so many colors, my eyes just implosioned! xD
ReplyDeleteoh! This is the blog I can't read at all
ReplyDeleteSorry my sight is too bad and I get dizzy easily with this kind of colors because their vibes too much to my eyes.
