I believe that web sites should be engaging and easy to navigate, at a minimum of ongoing expense. Perhaps for that reason, I seem to specialize in artist websites and small, community based non-profit organizations. As an artist, I have a good sense of what artists might need.
Specializing in aesthetic web presence for artists and others. Services include website design, design and build, redesign logos and graphic design, domain purchase and setup.
VISION
My goal is to create sites which are a boost rather than a burden to the client, requiring a minimum of maintenance and freeing creatives to be just that… creative. Web sites can often become joyless devourers of time and resources rather than the phenomenal tools for interconnection which we all hope they will be. The difference is often as simple as experience and planning.
As far as actual credentials go, I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from San Jose State University, and loads of experience, working with independent artists and non-profit organizations in the fields of art and literacy, in the local community, nationally and internationally.
Ultimately, my goal is to get you set up with a site that suits your needs. One that you can maintain, or that requires a minimum of hired help to maintain. What’s the point of something so fancy and fussy that is is unsustainable? That serves no one but the designer. Not that I mind the income, if you do decide to put me on contract for maintenance.
If that sounds like something you’d like, maybe we can work together.
When you hire me, you are making it possible for me to continue my own career as an independent artist. Thank you.
