(click above for larger version) It’s version five point one of my portfolio home page: my presence on the Internet. In more ways than one, a home page is like a first glance at you, when someone sees this page, they will review you on your work.

Are you a good designer? They’ll look at your home page to find out. Do you know what you’re talking about? They’ll look for qualifications. I made this page with these questions in mind.

The new website, I am glad to say, is 99% completely my own imagination, and completely my own work. I am also glad to say that the one percent extra is purely inspiration. Continue reading this »
