I’ve been very busy over the last couple of weeks with a complete redesign of my website<\/a>. \u00a0I decided to get back to basics and code the site myself. \u00a0Admittedly this was a chore, but I think the results were worth the effort.<\/p>\n

My principal concern with this iteration of the website was to make it fully responsive<\/strong>. \u00a0Responsive Design<\/strong> is the current buzzword in web design, and with HTML5 it’s never been easier. \u00a0“Responsive” means that the site adapts to whatever technology the viewer is using: smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop. \u00a0So check the site out on your phone! \u00a0And it looks really great on an iPad!<\/p>\n

Websites are always a work in progress. \u00a0This one’s no different. \u00a0I’ll probably keep tinkering with it. (But not without a little break so I can actually get some painting done!). \u00a0The new site is pretty simple, straightforward and without bells and whistles. Future iterations may include more javascript features or other tweaks to facilitate the display of the artwork.<\/p>\n
