Gestalt Assignments

This is my inspirational banner.  I explored color schemes on the Kuler site and thought that this one looked nice.  The second picture I created thinking in line with gestalt principles.  It uses figure/ground to create a cow image in place of where the hole in the o would regularly be.  It also uses proximity in that the letters all create a word.  Interesting how words are all created through proximity and we associate that with meaning.
