This is our website. The background is a doodle that we have drawn ourselves then scanned into Photoshop. We sharped the image to give the drawings more definition as they were originally drawn in pencil. This doodle is used as Kimya Dawson tends to use animation a lot, for example on her album 'Remember That I Love You' and on her website kimyadawson.com, she also has animation as her background. The title 'Kimya Dawson' at the top is also hand drawn then scanned in. As the background was white, we had to cut out the letters which is why they have a slight white ridge to them. We couldn't find a font on iWeb which was as quirky as we wanted which is why we drew it. As Kimya Dawson rarely comes to the UK, we decided to have 'New Year New UK Tour' on the home page to make a big deal out of it. Also, Kimya Dawson is a very friendly artist, and definitely one to keep in touch with her fans so we had her twitter feed on the front page. We feel that the idea of animation and autumn is continued throughout both our website and CD cover and this works effectively to presenting Kimya Dawson as an artist. The links on the page have actually been linked to the actual website pages, for example when you click on the twitter icon, Kimya Dawson's twitter page will come up.
