@Inka Mathew congrast Inka,looking good,and i think u shou;d try texture feel subtle rather than that ink,kinda doesnt fit nicely in there,as style of site look like drawn style and than sudennly techy med looking ink on sides,if you know what i mean.
Would be cool if you made pattern of boxes in negative space of that ink,that way it would connect well with the rest of the menu look and whole site.
Hope that helps,and dont killl me :) just suggestions .
Good to see this Inka, really nicely done! (Love your tags by the way). The images on the homepage look really good, I absolutely love that 'Adore' packaging..
I personally quite like the smoke, it has some very nice shapes and curves (especially to the top right) and if something suits your style, it makes sense to keep it in your work. I also like how it looks in the background of text-based pages like 'About'.
Thank you guys for the feedback! I really appreciate it.
@Kris Todd Oops! I dont' know why I missed that! Been looking at this too long. Will fix it. Thanks.
@Annelies Gailliaert Thanks for noticing that, Annelies. I'll do a thorough run through for each page.
@Waseem Arshad@Richard Lowery Jr. Thank you, guys.
@Nemanja Jovanovic I see what you mean. Thank you for being specific :-) I actually want the site to look "mixed", since my work is not just hand-drawn/rustic style. If you see my Print work, I do have medical and high tech slick looking pieces. It is more "commercial design", but that's what I do as well. Graphic Design is a commercial art, to me at least. But I'll see if I add brush texture to the "smoke" image it will make it blend better. If I like it I'll do that, if not, it stays as is :-)
@Claire Coullon Thanks so much! I'm glad you like the "smoke" too :-) I like it because it's an accidental beauty that happens. It's elegant and organic at the same time. It's my style indeed.
@Simon™ I'm glad that you like it, Simon, thanks so much for the compliments. Yeah, I'm a bit of "Jack of All Trades" some times. I hope it's not a bad thing here.
I know, I know, it's a sacrilege with the misspell! :-}

Looks good Inka. But I would like to suggest to remove the smoke from the background.

Thanks, @Ivan Bobrov. The ink in water image is going to stay since I like it :-) I don't like it to be minimalist (not my style).

Looks good.. the only thing I notice is that dribbble is missing a "b" down in your social section.

Tsk. tsk. Dribbble with only 2 b's!
