The overall design is minimalistic and simple, which works. But in my opinion, a serif font doesn't add to the minimalism, it makes it look accidental. I would try using a high-quality sans serif (like Helvetica or the Gotham fonts) and see if you like it.
I like the design for the business card, i think its quite novel. what i would change is your contact info font (perhaps?) or make it smaller at least to make it visually distinct.
for the regular font, i like it. Don't know what your art and design is like but reminds of something like industrial, antique-y.
typography
The overall layout needs some work. There is not a real focal point besides the badly cropped and distorted image. Try a more dynamic layout with better type treatment.
good work
I think this would be a great opportunity to actually make this picture look like a fossil and have it a clay color altogether and have a pressed imprint of your picture rather than a colored on. So, when the person you are trying to impress actually can feel the texture of the card and the impression. Maybe fool with the pressed up or down idea with your name and phone # as well?
Maybe three of your objects dynamically caught in time across the card smaller to bigger?
Your name should stand out more than the rest of the stuff...right?
I love the picture chosen for the words you use to describe you and your work.
actually, that is an awesome idea! i'll have to somehow make a mold or press in order to get the image raised/sunken. (i don't sub out printing unless it is large format - i even make my own paper!) but hanks for the idea! (+t)
I see you have a fascination with fosils, etc. :)
1) The art + design of - should be smaller. Your name should be bigger.
2) The image - the image is not good, sorry! :(
3) Try some background instead of white.
The rest looks ok.
not really sure how to remedy this, but to me the ?trilobyte? has a very obvious "extracted with photoshop" look.
didn't realize this was a business card, maybe it is less obvious at a smaller scale. what is "art + extinction" supposed mean?
the art + extinction....i love the way it sounds, and the extinction of man / post-apocalyptic theme tends to come up in my work. on a t-shirt i made, i screen printed some graphics of ants and it said "god intervened, man became extinct" a lot of what i do tends to focus on mankind's existence as being 'temporary' (makes people squirm)
The card looks pretty boring, to be honest. I'd say try using a picture of the fossil embedded in rocks as the whole card's background, then have the text as the top layer. Mess around with that for a bit and see what you get.
Design looks aweful. Take it as a learning step. As per the current web standards it should be easy on your eyes. 1. Try to use gradient backgrounds (may be light green). 2. The creature you are displaying, I have no idea what it is. But make it blurred. 3. Change the fonts.
These points are from design point of view. I can't get your concept. May be too complex for me!
