From the Vault | February 18, 2008

Lately I have been going through all my work, in an attempt to see where I have been and where I want to go. I have been working on a computer in some kind of capacity now for over ten years and well—there is a lot there! So many photos, after all that is where it all started, with a photograph. From there I just gravitated to working in PhotoShop creating, anything—collages, logos, web pages, posters, postcards, business cards; trying everything out graphically.

Through all my experience and exploration, I have found that web design is my passion. I have always wanted to move beyond just the design and to develop the backend that makes that design come alive. Hence, learning HTML, XHTML, and CSS has been so natural to me. I love what can be accomplished visually and functionally with a single file of code. I have known for some time now I really want to take it further and learn even more web technologies, JavaScript, PHP, CMS, everything. Web design and development provide me with constant challenges and very rewarding results.

One thing that is very obvious to me as I look through all my work is that I love to design in blue; I guess it is my signature color! As I continue to go through my breadth of work I will add pieces I like to the Vault.

Photography Class | November 30, 2007

Over the fall i took a photography class at the Cambridge Adult Center for Education over in Harvard Sq. It was a class on composition. I ended up really enjoying the class, meeting new people, understanding how others viewed their surroundings. I think it actually gave me a new way of thinking about taking pictures. I am alot more relaxed when i take pictures now, and i take alot more pictures which in itself is a good thing.

I am not sure where i would like to go next, whether i will take classes or not but i will keep shooting away! Here are some of the photographs i had selected to show for critique in my class.
