What services do you offer?

I am a digital artist, entirely self taught in the digital medium but with Fine Arts training as a painter in traditional media. My specialties are digital illustration and interfaces, but I create everything from logos to web site layouts and graphics.

If there are pixels involved, I have done it and would love to repeat the experience.

This includes entire online areas for America Online, illustrations for nation-wide ad campaigns, book and cd covers, corporate identity design, interfaces for programs and for the Web and countless gigabytes of graphics for web sites.


What do you like most about the web?

As an artist, I am completely enamored of the visual possibilities of the Web.

As an avid reader, I love the incredible amounts of information that are available.

As a being, I love the sharing, on every and any level.


What you like least about the web?

Possibly, what I love the most and what I dislike the most are the same.

I find myself continually delighting in the incredible and as yet largely untapped potential for this medium that will, eventually, completely redefine the term "multimedia".

However, at the present time, the web is still very much in the thrall of the paradigms that worked for print design since Guttenberg. Fortunately, I believe that this is changing as new technologies open new frontiers in the possible.


What for you is the most useful web technology?


Because I am somewhat of an idiot savant as regards technology - all I can really say I know well are graphics applications - I would not embarass myself by speaking on the matter of technology and the web. I never pretend to be anything but a graphics and design geekette who is overjoyed to leave the erudite investigations and elegant hand codings of dynamic html, cgi, asp and other such useful behind-the-scenes necessities to other kinds of geeks.

I suppose the most exciting development for me, as an artist who's office is the Web, has been the interactive and visual potential of Javascript. These days, its part of almost every single project I am involved with and (shameless but grateful plug ahead) without Coolmaps Rollover, "javascript" would not be a part of my design vocabulary.
