Hi Jacob,
I really like how the piece is easy on the eyes, yet still hooks the reader very nicely. The colors all compliment each other nicely and help the white text stand out amongst the different colors. I like how you kept the contact information (the website) limited to the red bar, making the single color help it stand out.
However, there are two problems that I found with this piece.
I don’t know if it’s just the way I see it, but to me, the font doesn’t work for the title, specifically in the word “Perfect”. The r and the f are too close together, and it almost looks like they’re touching or connected. I would have personally either used a different font or found a way to make the letters more spaced apart.
Finally, I feel there is too much blue in the piece. There’s the light blue in the background, and over that is the blue paintbrush that is leaving a trail of blue paint. I know they are different shades of blue, but I feel it would be better if the paintbrush and paint were some other color that stood out better over the light blue.
