I am a web designer and I enjoy communicating thoughts, emotions, points-of-view and fantasitc ideas visually. In a previous life I was also a graphic designer (I use that term loosely, it was mostly flyers for clubs and such). I really enjoy what I am doing, and I hope that you do too.
Designing this site was alot of fun because they wanted it to have alot of textures and patterns (to kind of line up with their home site). I used mostly muted colors with many overlapping patterns and textures to give it a warm inviting mood that's a little “scrapbook-y”.
I blog now, get used to it. Also, check out my recraft blog for various ways to reuse that stuff you just can't part with and save the planet. All in a days work.
