From the youngest age I have enjoyed making things, and blessed with the gift of a very low boredom threshold I need to be busy most of the time. Whenever possible I busy myself with making things.
I got involved with computers by chance, learning by the trusty method of curiosity, trial and error. A few years ago I began noodling about with Photoshop, and started finding ways to make things digitally. From there my curiosity led me to learn to use other applications, and the joys of web design.
I love photography, colour, symmetry, spirals and swirly things; architecture with ornate fiddly bits and wrought iron railings; lush tactile textiles, symbolism and shiny things. I love language and I love to learn.
I believe in the power of positive thinking. I have to have music.
...and what I do
Self taught in (and continually learning):
- Adobe Photoshop CS2 & 3
- Adobe Illustrator CS2
- Dreamweaver 8
- XHTML & CSS
- Flash 8
I'm currently learning some more JavaScript and PHP to liven things up around here.
When not nudging pixels about I love to draw, paint, sew, knit, make jewellery and shiny things. In time I'll add some of these creations to the portfolio.
