It has come to my attention that designing and producing your own portfolio site is very similar to giving birth (though I am sure my wife would have a few words on the subject...). After many years of never having a spare moment to do my own site, I finally found both the time and the determination needed to get it completed. The hardest part was sifting through all the hard drives, collecting the work and trying to construct a thread or feel that told my story. Additionally, writing the copy, shooting the pieces, trying to figure out the proper canvas from which to project the work and the right navigation - it all takes time. When it came to the About page, I knew that I did not want to have a photo or one particular piece from the book tell the story - so, I decided to take something from my sketchbook which is a common exercise for me and depict it in a pictogram. A collective of images and symbols that quickly described myself quickly. Clever? No. Easy? Yes.
All and all, I'm pretty happy with the result and I've gotten a lot positive feedback and some possible projects as a result.
