My Art Philosophy
I have lived and worked in San Anselmo, California for 20 years. My background experience in Fine Art and years of training in Graphic Design have given me valuable insight that I apply to my work.
I enjoy exploring new art territories and finding new ways of looking at the same old thing. It is my belief that a creative eye can make just about anything artistic
. . . my imagination rarely sleeps.
“We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements in life, when all we need to make us really happy is some thing to be enthusiastic about.“
~ Charles Kingsley
My Web philosophy
Five years ago I began to see the value in applying my print background to Web design. I focus on the Power of One and believe your Web Site is an unlimited territory for you to be seen. It is my goal to bring something artistic and personal into the increasing dominance the Internet has in our lives. We all have a certain "look" and the Internet offers a platform for us to communicate what uniquely represents Who We are and What We do. I design one-of-a kind Web sites
