Graphics Design

Graphics design is more of a hobby than a profession for me. Having never been professionally trained in Graphics design, for many web projects a graphics designer is contracted to draw what the site will look like, then I come in and construct the actual HTML architecture. These and the "Personal Examples" represent my talents in graphics design.

Explore New Worlds One of my hobbies is working in a 3-D graphics environment such as Bryce 3-D. I find it relaxing to build wire-frame models and play with the many different textures, behaviors, and possibilities this design environment provides.

The Evolution of a Corporate Identity For nearly two years I have worked to develop the image of Waygate Consulting, a company in which I am a partner. Here you may see the logic behind my designs for this constantly evolving company.

Section Headers and Fun with Text These are two examples of my text manipulation and presentation talents. The "Carnival Text" is a fun but simple example of quick text trick. The "Glass Text" is an example of a more technically challenging presentation.

Shockwave Rough Draft This is my first attempt using shockwave technology and is a work in progress. I intend to get back to this demo and clean it up properly when I have the time. For now it stands as an example of what I can do with complex software when I sit down and play with it for eight hours.
